I really want to take a little time and Praise God for this site and the ppl here. There are very few things that make me happy anymore. Sometimes i feel like im the most miserable person i know lol. Thats always when i remember the JOY and PEACE that are only found in Christ. Every morning i wake up in almost a panic. I feel so anxious that im unable to lay in bed (which used to be my favorite place). But as soon as I exit my bedroom i am met with 2 loving faces of my dogs. Their loyalty and love transcend any that i can understand. And i can't help but be reminded of the constant, unwavering love that God feels for us. I love knowing that every time my dogs think of me... That my God has had me on His mind even more. That he has already made my way and prepared my path. I see that i should act more like my puppies. That I should trust my provider just as they trust theirs. They know where their food is at all times and can even get in there to get it themselves if they want but they know that I will come and feed them the right amount when the time is right. And no matter what happened the night before... Every morning they just want to crawl into my lap and be loved by their daddy (not small dogs either lol). It just makes me want to curl up into a ball in God's arms and appreciate the comfort and peace he has already brought into my life. Its like my dogs are a window to heaven for me. They serve as a perfect reminder as to how much I really need the Lord. And no matter what is on my mind... Nothing can keep me down when i walk my dogs to the lake. They run around and swim so freely. They are so happy just to be out in God's country just enjoying the moment. And i always find myself filled with tears and praise. My God IS MY JOY. And my dogs are the 2 greatest gifts he could give me. Because of them... God has shown me that the peace i feel with them and the joy they bring are just a part of Him. That, if I follow after Him just as my 2 angels follow after me... that i might not understand where I am going... But ill trust that its the best way and that He only desires the best for me :D
Again plz let me say thank you for this community. I don't have a lot of CLOSE christian friends. I love the fact that ppl can come here w/ no "other agenda" and lay their heart out. There are many types of ministry in this world that God has called us to. And the ppl here that have commented and posted have ministered to me. And you have enhanced my life. So thank you all so much again. For bein the vessels of God that you are even if you don't realize it. SO LETS PRAISE HIM. For all He has done and all HE WILL DO. All the joy and peace in the world is so close to us but we push it so far. Thank you all for helping me realize where mine has been hiding :D
With all my heart's love,
CECIL

:) I enjoyed reading this Cecil.
God bless your dogs :)
I love it how God points to things in our lives as examples or pictures of spiritual things. Like, Jesus did it in parables but God still brings things to our minds through our thoughts hey? Teaching us and encouraging us through the things and people we interact with every day.

That was beautiful Cecil. God shows us, in so many different ways. Thanks for sharing something that can be related to by many, if they only let themselves.
