Recently a kind lady found a six week old puppy abandoned in her
driveway. It was skin and bones, covered in fleas, and close to death.
It was beyond belief how anyone could do this to a little, baby dog.
This wonderful woman, though, rescued this tiny, white ball of fluff,
took him in and bathed him a long time to kill the fleas. Then unable to
raise him herself she put a notice on Facebook trying to find him a good
home. It was there that my daughter saw it. She knew that I was hoping
to get my oldest son, JJ, a new puppy. It wasn't long then until we
were bringing this little guy home. My son named him, "Fluffy."
After another bath, a few good meals, and a trip to the vet Fluffy
no longer seemed sick or sad. Instead his true personality emerged. Just
this morning he chewed on my ankles, my toes,the rugs, his chew toy, and
his own tail. He wiggled out of his new collar. He whined his way onto
my lap while I ate breakfast. He wolfed down his puppy chow and pooped
on the floor. He barked at his toy bone, chased the my old beagle all
over the house, and french kissed the cat. He also melted all of our
hearts with his happiness and unconditional love. It looks like he is
going to be quite a handful as he grows up but we don't mind. I am
sure that he was meant to come to us at this time and to bring his love
into our lives.
Isn't it incredible how our Heavenly Father can
use even the worst acts that some of us do to bring out the best in the
rest of us? I thank that sweet lady who saved Fluffy's life and I want
her to know that he will always be loved and cared for here.
We
are all connected in this life. We are connected with each other. We are
connected with God. We are connected with all of His creatures. We can
weaken those connections with acts of evil or we can strengthen them
with acts of Love. May you always choose Love.
