Lucy is one of our grand-dogs. Now before you get too up in arms, understand I was raised on a ranch where animals had jobs. I really did not understand “pets”. However, several of our children live in packs of varying sizes, and our grandchildren totally understand and love family members who don’t look like them. So I’ve adjusted some.
I have always understood, however, that our friends with fur teach us much. Recently one of our daughters and her pack went to visit our Second Daughter and her pack in Florida. This is a fabulous time of year to visit Florida (as I write this it is November and freezing rain where I live). And Lucy is the penultimate Sunshine Dog. Napping is a finely honed art for her. Ahhhhh. Rest and restoration. #vacalikeLucy
God gifts us moments and times of rest and restoration, the mountain top places. He calls us to “enter His rest”, to the gift of Sabbath. Do we #vacalikeLucy so we can enter the valleys and the battles refreshed and restored!?!?
We should.
