“We are in this struggle together. You have seen my struggle in the past, and you know that I am still in the midst of it.”  Philippians 1:30  NLT


I was very proud of Famous today during his grooming and bath. He was very cooperative as I turned the electric clippers on him, and I did not have to drag him into the shower. I have learned the secret of working fast and throwing in an occasional treat to make it easier for both of us! Otherwise, we can struggle through cleaning his ears, trimming his neck, and grooming each paw.

We struggle in this life, but we do not struggle alone. The sad truth is we sometimes struggle against one another rather than being united in purpose. God’s Spirit brings unity and fellowship that can sustain each of in our daily struggles.


Strengthen me today in my struggles so that I may share in the struggles of those around me.
