"IT'S SO FLUFFY!"
God always provides –
but sometimes He spoils His children as well. Like crazy.
It’s got some brown
spots; and a “tail”; and a hood with a beautifully detailed puppy face. I
looked so realistic in all my fluffy white-and-brown glory that my canine-crazy
sister almost squeezed me to death (like she hugs our real dog).
I didn’t need
it. But I like to think God wanted to spoil me. He knew how much I’ll
appreciate this, come winter, so He provided for me.
Sometimes I’m almost
embarrassed at all the blessings He chooses to shower me with.
If we really try, we
can survive without cappuccinos and Lindt chocolate. And Tolkien and Pratchett
novels. And peasant blouses. And The A-team. And chai tea. And
Longfellow’s poems. And sunflowers. And Hans Zimmer music. And, of course,
fluffy doggy onesies.
But these things,
while not crucial to our survival, feed a part of our souls. They make life
more beautiful. They add music to the mundane and turn the daily grind into a
song.
God knows this, and I
think that’s why He likes to spoil us sometimes. As John 1:16 says, “From the
fullness of His grace we have all received one blessing after another.”
Aye – my cup overflows
with blessings, and I have no choice but to drink out of the full saucer.
