How To Be A Christian Without Being A Jerk

Hey, Dana, let’s go for a “W”!

November 3rd, 2010

This beauty is our dog, Nala (Lion King, remember?) The one think she is obsessed over more than chasing squirrels or staring at Nancy with eyes that say "Just one bite, pleeeeze, is- Going for a walk.

Or a "W." See, she gets so excited that we can't say the word aloud unless we plan on carrying out the task. I enjoy verbally torturing her by saying, "Nala, so, you want to have a TALK! Nala, did you hear that SQUAWK! (Sorry, PETA people, amd by the way,my favorite food in all the world is a medium rare filet mignon…) As a result, Nancy and I call it a "W" when we are negotiating who is going to take her.

When Nala realizes she is going on a walk, it is always Christmas
and she is always five years old.

Never seen a dog pant so much in anticipation.  A healthy obsession, indeed…

What if I had that same response thinking about God's Word? So into his ways that it makes me simply drool?

Dude, David felt this way. Figure if he can kick a giant's butt and go all MMA on him, he get's that confidence from somewhere and I want a piece of that!

Well, what do you know…

"I pant with expectation, longing for your commandments." (Psalm 119:131 NLT)
