Right now I am writing from my computer at home. I am taking the time to continue with my Guide Dog Blog because that is all I have right now is TIME. My family is in the middle of a ten day quarantine from COVID 19. Don't feel sorry for us, we are all going to be great. We are not afraid of sickness or death because our Loving Heavenly Father only gives us the best things possible. He has great plans for us! So, just pray God receives glory.
As I write, I think about my guide dog not getting much work in right now. However, he is doing something that was not trained into him, but seems to be intrinsic to the retriever breed: McQueen is a great comfort dog. When I'm sick in bed, McQueen will check on me. When I'm sick in the chair, McQueen will lay by me. My guide dog seems to care about me. (Don't get me wrong--my wife is caring for me more!) But, McQueen reminds me of a timeless truth about my Jesus: "...there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother" Proverbs 18:24b. Jesus has promised to never leave me, nor forsake me. His Holy Spirit is the great Comforter. Even if I didn't have McQueen or Julie or anyone to care for me in my weakness--I have Jesus. Jesus is love and comfort to me.
God gives us little earthly blessings like McQueen to remind us of His goodness!
