Tommy on the Beach

July 27

“Grampy, want to go for a walk on the beach?” What I didn't realize is to a four-year-old a walk on the beach means racing along the water, looking back, smiling and taking off again. This goes on for several minutes.

Finally he stops and starts running back towards me, arms extended. I throw my arms up and run towards him. As he draws near I crouch and he leaps into my waiting arms, squealing with delight. What joy.

“ These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.” (John 15: 11)
