The Swing by Cheryl Ertel
Here on the swing is a place of rest, no more decisions or trials to resist, just rest. It was built by the One who loves you the most, crafted and detailed right down to the post. Painted the color of your hearts desire, fashioned by Him, for His ways are higher. While mounting the swing from the ceiling, He took the finest of silver and lined the hooks. The seat of trust was made by hand, formed and molded by a very special man. He designed this seat especially for two. He knew there would be days one seat would not do. He finished it, looked at it, and He was very pleased, overcome with joy He fell to His knees. He prayed and prayed for a special day to come, one that would be about resting and swinging, no work would be done. I will be waiting, He said, as he prayed, I know the day will come when my friend can stay and we’ll swing on a seat built for two.
