"You just want to use their pool"
That was the accusation in the neighborhood every summer when I was growing up.All the kids got accused,myself included. It was said that we were hanginng around certain kids when the weather got warmer,so we could swim in their pool.We had nothing to do with them when swimming season was over, just hung around them for what we could get out of them.True?In my case, not really. I had to pay people to be my friends, so this case didn't apply to me.What about God and me? Why do I "hang around with Him?To get blessings out of Him? For "hell insurance"?Or is it becuse I love Him,and am grateful for the very breath He gives me, and in gratutde for how He's changed my life?Is it because I'm so grateful that want to serve Him and my fellow man? Lord, may my answers not disappoint you.

i remember being accused of the same thing. jeanne and i were friends all the time, but nobody ever saw us in the winter because we were always inside. then when summer came and we were together again outside, people would say i was using her for her pool.
