Walking in the Sonshine

Well, it is late and I am tired, but here I am, pondering.

I have been thinking this week about Adam and Eve. In Genesis 3, we find that God walked with them in the Garden of Eden. Imagine, He stepped on the earth, sized Himself to us, perhaps put His arm around Adams shoulders. He talked with Adam; talked with Eve. How He loves them.
Then, they listen to another; choose another way; find themselves feeling guilty; hiding from the One who created them and loves them still.

Today we still hide. We think we are seeking a relationship with Him, but how often are we truly hiding. Afraid to be seen by Him for who we really are; afraid to have the "thing" that we cling to seen by Him, we hide. We hide in busyness; we hide in movies, intemperance--(drink, food, clothes, even exercise!) All overdone, hiding.

He calls us with His everlasting love. He calls us from the bushes. He sends us out of the Garden for our own good. And He comes with us. We walk in the Sonshine. We are warm, at peace. We are free to be all He intended us to be. He helps us. He walks with us. He walks ahead of us. He has a plan for me and it is better than the plan I have for myself! Jeremiah 29:11-14
