Dogs. They get it.
In the morning, they are excited to be alive and start the day. They turn to you, tails a-wagging; seeking you out to share in the joy.
They want food. They come to you. Water. Same thing.
They want to enjoy the fresh outdoors - they look at you and then the door.
In need of a little extra TLC? They bump you with their head. Please let me feel your loving touch.
Desiring some peaceful, safe place to rest and you will find their head in your lap.
During a thunderstorm, whenever they are nervous or afraid, they will tremble in your arms.
When you return home, they greet you excitedly at the door.
And when they have a wonderful toy - they want to share the joy and excitement with you. Let’s have some fun together!
When they grow tired at day’s end, they sleep at your feet.
Whatever is needed, or desired, they turn to you.
Oh, that we would have such openness and understanding in our relationship with the Lord!
“You will show me the way of life, granting me the joy of your presence and the pleasures of living with you forever.” Psalms 16:11 NLT
“All creatures look to you to give them their food at the proper time. When you give it to them, they gather it up; when you open your hand, they are satisfied with good things.” Psalms 104:27-28 NIV
