I have a dog who rides in my truck.For seven years he has been my constant companion on the road.To say we are close is an understatement.He was a puppy when he started riding with me and I would hate to leave him behind ever.You see I've set my love on him.
God used my dog to teach me an object lesson on His love,"He first loved me," "while I was yet a sinner Christ died for me,""He loved me and gave Himself for me."
There are a lot of dogs out there,but I loved this one little mutt personally.That is the way God loves you and me,it is a personal thing.
My dog slipped his lease and wondered off one day,not very far,but I was frantic because I couldn't see him.When I found him God spoke to me about how He alwas seeks the one who strays ,searching until he is found,bringing him back to the fold."Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me."
As the dog grew more acustomed to my ways he paid more attention to my commands."His commands are not burdensome,"and "my sheep know my voice and they follow me".I can turn my dog loose now and when I call he runs back to me."they go in and out and find green pasture."
By the way did you know dog spelled backwards is God?
