“Five Fingers and a Paw”
“Bind them on your fingers; write them on the tablet of your
heart.” (Prov. 7:3 NKJV)
Sleeping next to me in my favorite rocker,
I again am amazed at her paws. Each has a full pad, to protect her from the heat,
the cold, and even sharp fallen tree objects as she walks the paths we take her
on. Created in an extraordinary way, our Dachshund Zoe fascinates me. She is
among all the creatures the Lord God of all has made. Awesome. Glorious.
There are so many breeds of animals. Each
with specific features unique to the purpose He designed them to have in this
world. What a mind He has, to have thought of so many different ones, and to
place them in our lives. So much pleasure these creatures have brought us, both
great and small, given to mankind since the beginning of time.
And then I look at my own fingers, five on
each hand. That too is something that causes me to think of His glory. So
different from the other mammals. Superior in many ways, given to us to work,
to play music, to hold another’s hand.
When I take time to just stop and consider
Him, how can I not call Him God Almighty, the Creator of the Universe? We have
our super heroes, our exciting sports champions, our strong leaders who have
guided us on to many good results. But when I think of our Father’s heart and
His purposes for each of us, nothing and no one can compare to Him.
Five fingers and a paw – just two simple
pictures of His love expressed for us. Thank you Lord Jesus for creating these,
and for all Your creation that we often take for granted.
We appreciate You and Your mighty works done
on our behalf.
