OK, I am not a professional blogger. I am not expecting to 'go viral'. I'm not expecting anyone to even read this. I'm just writing cause it helps me to express my feelings. ugh, that sounds so sappy. But it is true. I have discovered that I bottle things up, good and bad, until I explode - which is usually bad.
And who knows. Maybe I am a good writer??
The Starting over title is because we, my husband and I, are sort of starting over our life with a new dog. 2 years ago we had to put our girl Missy down. Sad sad day. It has take us two years to be able to get to a point where we could allow another dog into our lives.
But on Friday Lizzy arrived. She is a rescue dog. A German Shepherd mix like Missy.
Lizzy is like Missy in many was but also has her own unique ways. :)
She hates the vacuum. I'm not fond of it either. She barks and bites at it. Yes, I did think about using her as an excuse to not vacuum. Not that I need an excuse. She whines at night when we put her in the kennel and we go to bed. Hopefully that will not be a habit that continues to tonight.
Right now she sleeping on the floor in complete peace, feeling secure, no fear, no pain. Watching her gives me such a wonderful feeling. We did something good by adopting her.
Is that how Jesus feels about me? I am in peace, no fear, no pain, no suffering. Trusting in Him to care for me. God blessed me so I could bless a dog.
How much better would it feel to save the life of a person? How good it feels to love.
God, show me the opportunity to share your love with someone who needs it. Every day.
