“He himself gives life and breath to everything, and he satisfies every need there is.” Acts 17:25b NLT
Dogs differ from children in that a child grows into adulthood to lead his or her own life, whereas dogs are dependent upon you from when you bring them home as puppies all the way into their golden years. Anticipating the changing needs of nutrition, activity, and perception can help both of you to navigate the different stages of a dog’s life.
Famous recently began exhibiting a stumble during our daily walks. I suspected it was due to the impact to his shoulder from years of jumping off of the bed. Hoping I could teach him a new trick, I purchased a set of stairs he could use to go up and down as he pleased. He did not know what to make of them at first since he had always placed his front paws on the bed awaiting my assistance. But he soon learned to accept the new tool and now he does not stumble.
God knows our needs long before we do. Knowing this can reduce our fears and worries.
Today, let me be satisfied with the gifts of life and breath.
