I have been reading this collection of articles that Rich Mullins wrote for this little column that he had in a paper. The story that I read today was one of his dog Bear. Bear loved his master, knowing his sent, running to him when he was scared, and always trusting his master. When Rich wrote those things I was encouraged, but yet at the same time it was a hard pill to swallow. This beast has more loyalty but less brains then I and yet I have more brains buts less loyalty then him. My dog is more faithful to me even when I leave him for months at a time; he is always ready to accept me back, even if he doesn’t know why I left him.
Why can’t I have that loyalty? Why don’t I seek God’s scent all the time (the Bible, His Church, or His disciples), but yet I don’t? There is little loyalty in my life. God help me become more like you, seeking everything that has your scent. God help me seek you in the hard times, in the good times, and when I can do it on my own. Let me always rest in You! God thank you for never letting me go!
