Dear God

Dear God,
Hi! It’s me, Messiah, but you already know that because you know everything. I just stopped to say thank you for letting me come to camp today. I loved riding on the bus! We got to watch a movie, and then I met my counselor and he is just so nice! Also, thank you for Director Darren! I talked to him as soon as I saw him. I just love that guy. I looked at his hands, and I noticed his ring. It has a cross on it! He told me that the cross lets other people know that he is a Christian. I looked at him in amazement, as you saw on my face. He told me that being a Christian means he loves everyone, including me. I knew I loved that man, and now I know that he loves me too! Thank you, God. Please watch over me as I sleep. Oh! And thank you for the food here. It’s really good.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
