Prayer For Zero Week

My Jabez Journey

Hey, Dad?

I just spent some really scarey time today. I had to go, You know, over "there".

You know, Daddy, when I used ta dance around over there it never felt like it did today. It was all barren, and dry, with a really big, hot wind.

The air was so thick you could hardly breathe. I felt like Ole Spongebutt had a steel belt, right around my heart. And the longer I was over there, the sadder I got.

There's just way too many folks over there, Daddy! I know that I had to go. I wanted to do like my Big Bro did, and show somebody the good stuff. I was listenin' to that song You wrote for me today...Oh, You know, that one that has those words in it that says:

"With two pieces of rough wood, three nails, and one willing heart, God built a bridge..."

I'm really sorry, Daddy that I was EVER over there. I'm so glad to be over here, with You. Don't ever leave me, Dad. And, don't ever, ever let me leave You again. Thanks for showing me something today that I had to see. And, thanks for bringin' me Home.

I love You Daddy. I haven't figured out just how to tell You how much yet, but I'm gonna work on it, I promise. Ya know, I just think it's so awesome that me and You can talk like this. That's maybe the best part of this whole deal down here. It gets pretty ugly sometimes, and there's just whole bunches of times when I couldn't make it if You weren't playin' with me.

I'm not sure how it's gonna turn out Daddy. But, I hope I do good for You today. Just, for today. That's enough for me to deal with. You gotta buhmember, I'm just a little kid!! But, it sure is great to know in my heart that me and You are a Majority, no matter what.

Thanks, Dad. I love You.

Your kid,

Bud
