come and sit down I have a story to tell you..she came and sat to listen you said to me.. “I am hungry; what is there to eat? I can’t reach the water; can you help me please?”, Abby asked. She scampers through the kitchen looking for something. She heard a yelling voice, “You are eating again!” “Yes, I am hungry.”“Ok, but you make sure you clean up your mess.”“Ok, I will. You know you told me that already.”“I know, but you forget.”“No I don’t. I always clean up after myself”, she said. “No you don’t.”“Yes I do.”She could hear the blaring of the evening news, Good Evening Arizona. They ramble on. She set to the task of getting food, because she was so hungry. She put in the meat in to heat up as she ate salad. She was told that she was so weird to eat so many greens. She turned the burner to hi. It began to burn and smoke filled the room. The voice was back.“Not again Abby! Every night you smoke up the house! You got to stop this. We are not delighted with the brunt smell!”“I am sorry,” she said.“Don’t cook any more.”But I am hungry. I have to eat. They just don’t understand how eating right helps me feel good, she thought. Forgiveness was made and good nights said. “I love you,” she yelled, “and Jesus loves you! You know what?”, she said as she peeked her head through the door, “I love you.” Then she closed the door and peeked out again. “You know?” He said with a smile, “Yes, Jesus loves you and you know I love you too.” She walked away proud of herself. It was so simple, she thought. I am going to tell him everyday that Jesus loves him. Then it will help him remember how much He does. Dear Lord, help my daddy know you love Him. Thanks for loving me. She closed her eyes and fell fast asleep.She woke up the next day eager to start. She ran to the window and said, “Daddy, is Jesus coming today? I sure would love to see him.” She pointed to him. “Daddy what do you think heaven will be like?” With a still, stern face he answered, “Dear child I don’t know. Bur I’ll tell you one thing,” he said with a great big smile, “there will be good food because we dine with the Lord.” This delighted her! “Oh Daddy! You know how much I love food!” Then she began to ramble on about all different kinds that might be there. He stopped her and said, “Addy?”“Yes dad?” “You know what the best part of heaven will be?” “What daddy, what?” “It is being with Jesus.”“He must be pretty fun to play with! Oh, and do you think he will ride a bike with me? I do that with my beast friends. And do you think he will eat ice cream? Jesus is going to be the best friend ever! I want to see him now! When is he coming?” “I don’t know, no one knows. It says he come any day.” “Wow! Any day? Why not today?” “Well get ready for school now, ok? “Ok, I will.”
