Forgotten Umbrella

It sit's there in the corner on a sunny day, wondering why you don't take it on a good day. It waits patiently for the day when rain falls, knowing that's the day when you will call. It gives you protection, from all life's extremes, the deluge of water, and when the hot sun beams. When life is easy, and breezy, or just mundane, Do you think of the umbrella, or only when it rains? God is not an umbrella, used only in an emergency, cast aside, forgotten, unless there's an urgent need. Remember him always in the good times and the bad, leaving him on good days, makes him kind of sad. John Derek Hamilton November 09,2015

You got that right, John. Sad that many people only think of Him when they're desperate for help. Thanks for sharing this.
