Good morning and happy Friday, and Happy New Year as well. So at work there is a dog, stray, that hangs out there. She's known as depot dog and has the streets smarts of a TV show star. Three dog catchers couldn't bring her in. She's a cute dog and I would love to bring her home. She won't have a thing to do with that. She will just barely let you feed her. She follows me to my truck to get something to eat but that's as far as it goes. I just wish I could get her to understand how good she would have it. Clean bed, a day at the spa,lol. All the food she could want and a nice warm bed to sleep in at night. But mostly to be loved on and shown that she's cared for. She doesn't know the difference though. She doesn't think she has it bad. To her, life is good. To her, this is how life is and she's doing good at it. She doesn't know the blessing she good have with just one choice. It would have to be the right choice, but one to be made none the less. How many depot dogs do you know? The human kind. The ones who think this is just how life is and they're doing just fine at it. The ones who don't see the blessing in knowing Jesus as their Lord and Savior. The ones that are just one choice away from the best "life" has to offer. How committed to your choice you made are you? Have you gotten comfortable now in your new "home" that the blessing of it has worn off and it's just not the same as it was? Make this the year to renew your commitment to Him and to give of yourself to others to show what life is and how it is to be lived, for Him. We're blessed so we can be a blessing. In love always. <><
