Hey guys! I know I haven’t written in a couple of days, I’ve been really busy with work and my new “pet”, Mohawk Joe! A bunny had babies in my neighbor’s backyard about a week ago, and I would go over there every day to check on them. There were four babies in the nest, but after about six days three of them died. I’m pretty sure the Mom abandoned the nest, so I took the remaining bunny with the hopes of rehabilitating him so I could release him because my Dad doesn’t want a bunny as a pet—he’s lame. So I have been talking care of this bunny (with the help of my sister Jackie) for two days now. He’s been doing alot better (I think? I’m really hoping he doesn’t randomly croak on me) and I know it will be hard to let him go because I love him so much.
All this “deep thinking” about how I am going to let this baby go after I have put so much time and love into it helps me understand how God can love the people who continually reject Him and are going to hell. How He can love Christians who don’t always give Him their all, who serve Him half-heartedly. I have been one of those before, and some days I still am. But I am so thankful to know that no matter what I do God still loves me unconditionally…at His own expense. We do nothing to earn His love, therefore when we stray away from Him we don’t always feel like we are losing anything---but we are guys! How can I not serve my Savior with my whole life? Why do I have such a hard time surrendering everything to Him? Because I’m human…and I mess up, I make mistakes. But God knows that, after all he created me. Galatians 3:26 says, “For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus,”. I am so blessed to be a child of God, and I am so ecstatic to know that my Heavenly Father loves me…kind of like how I love Mohawk Joe.
