I sat with my friend on a bridge. The bridge led over a beautiful creek, The hole area around surrounded in green. You could here the soft trickle of the water that flowed of a small water-fall. The bridge is about 15 to 20 feet high. About 3 feet wide. There is no railing. I dangled my feet over the water. All you could here were birds chirping and the sound of the soft water as it flowed. And the distant sound of the growling dirt bikes my brother and his friend where riding in a sea of knee high grass. Leaves fell of the trees and landed in the water. And you could feel a warm breeze as it bathed the trees in the smell of spring flowers. Now and then the boys would fly through the area on the bikes leaving tire tracks in the dirt.
We walked through a field and over to a barbed wire fence. We saw a couple of hours's grazing, picked some grass and tried to convince them that if they would come close to the fence they would get the long green grass and I would pet them. Like the saying ( kill two birds with one stone.) But apparently hours's either don't speak human or had already gotten grass and there morning rub down, because they trotted about half way to us and then stopped. We never convinced them to come to us. So we went back and walked in the creek. We talked long about God's beauty and how he thought about creating this. My friend would jokingly get mad at me whenever I stepped in the mud. Because she didn't like the footprints. She thought it took away from the beauty. We would stop occasionally and pick of litter, broken beer bottles, pieces of plastic and trash. Then we came to a small water fall barely running. I stepped on top of it and me and my friend grabbed a stick and started to clear the mud and muck from the crevasses of the rock. Because we knew that it could not to it by itself. As we moved the mud from the waterfall. I started thinking to myself about how I am the waterfall. And the waterfall collecting mud is like me collecting sin. I builds up and up. And we cant get rid of it by ourselves. We need to ask God to forgive us, and He will come and clean us up. He will come and push out our sin so the water can run in us again. Gods water. So we can flow into others and tell them about him and how he cleaned us out and made us not just a small water fall. But a big one.
