I wonder who owns these animals? It must be some very kind man for they seem to be eagerly waiting in a group for him.
The big dog is holding the whip in his mouth, so his master is surely about ready to start on a drive. How interesting it is to see the dogs so anxious to be with their owner; they would not care to be near him if he were unkind to them. We read in the Scriptures,
“A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast.” Proverbs 12:1010A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel. (Proverbs 12:10). How can a Christian man or woman, boy or girl, be unkind to any person, or any of God’s creatures, when they realize each day how much God is doing for them?
Let us think often of Jesus and His grace to us in forgiving our sins.
