This little dog seems to be a rat-terrier, for she has caught a rat and is teaching her young pups all about it.
When you are children you have many lessons to learn. You learned to walk, and then you learned to talk, and you have learned many other things since.
Have you learned about God and His love in giving His own beloved Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, to be your Saviour? This is the most important thing of all.
If you know Him as your own Saviour, then you will learn to walk with Him, and talk to Him in thanksgiving and prayer.
We see and learn plenty of bad things, but if we have learned to love the Lord Jesus, and are seeking to please Him, He will give us strength to do what is right, and to refuse to do what is wrong.
Others know by What you do, whether you are one of God’s children.
We don’t look for thorns on an apple tree, and we don’t look for bad deeds from one who knows and loves the Lord Jesus.
I hope each one of you is living in such a way that others see only good fruit,— that they see Jesus shining out in you.
