Friday’s Musings: Jesus and the Mama Dog USED

Used again 7/2/19
Luke 6:40 A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone when he is fully trained will be like his teacher.

Last week I saw the cutest video about the difference between dogs and cats.  It began by showing a chunky puppy sitting at the top of some stairs.  The puppy is afraid to come down them.  The dog owners tell their other grown dog to show the puppy how. Over and over the dog goes up the stairs and encourages the puppy to come down. Finally the puppy makes it down.  I was amazed at the intelligence and patience of this older dog.  I think of how patient Jesus is with us.  We can see his example through his teaching but sometimes it takes a while for us to get it.  We shouldn’t feel too bad, because the disciples had the same struggle.  Thank goodness Jesus took time to bring people to the Way he wanted them to travel.  If you want to see what happens with the cats, follow the video link below!

Holy God thank you for the patience and grace you show us each day. Help us to understand what you would teach us about living the Christian life.  In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

Have a great weekend!
