The Amazing Love I See in God's Animals


I really love to watch the nature of animals and insects here among us.  They just amaze me, to see them do what they do.  Like this little bug in this picture, what are his or her goals for the day? How simple can their little lives be?  What makes them have the ability to do whatever they do?  Their brain must be so tiny that you could not even find it without mushing it.  Yet, God sees them just as important to life as any other creature on the Earth.  I look at our cat Shelby and just marvel at her.  The way she acts sometimes is something to behold.  I always thought cats were just stupid.  They're not like dogs, they don't sniff at the dinner table or lick in you in the face when you pet them.  They just kind of do their own thing.  Shelby has always liked to roam around in the outdoors all summer long.  Sometimes she never shows up till morning or she will pull the meowing at the front door right after I decide to set the alarm for the night. 

Since it has become a little cooler during the night she seems to be liking to sleep in the house at night.  When she is in the house in the morning she roams around the house looking for the kids while they are at school.  She misses them, and when they arrive she is in the middle of them.  She has become our spoiled little cat it seems, and I have taken a liking to her though. She is a good cat well behaved, doesn't get on the counter tops or the tables.  She just seems to like our being around her.  It's almost sad to think that nobody wanted her and just left her near our house.  She is just a cat that is sweet and has feelings. 

I wander in amazement  that God gave us such a variety of animals to choose from to become our pets and be able to enjoy them as much as all of us has.  Our God is a lover of his children and his animals he created.  He put a lot into making all  these wonderful creatures, that they have the ability to make the lonely feel wanted.  That they are able to be trained to help the blind walk, to help the elderly smile and make the sickest of children happy and cheerful.   For those who feel God is against them or feel that our God is a God that brings evil upon this Earth, think again!  He is God of great love.  If he can bring love to the simplest animals here, take a look at the love he brings to every man, woman and child.  Our God is a living Creator that continues to bring about pure happiness and great love to His people.  Make the choice to be loved by the Lord above. Take a look at your pet tonight and see the what the creator put into them to be able to do what they can do.  I stand in awe of our Creator!
