Dear Young Christian A brother in Christ made this statement to me while I was staying in his home: “If I was as faithful to the Lord as my dog is to me, what a difference it would make in my Christian life.” It made me think of Caleb in the Old Testament. His name means “Dog,” and it is recorded in the Word of God that he “wholly followed the Lord” (Deuteronomy 1:36). Often, names in the Bible have real significance, and this one I used to wonder about. That is because a dog usually does not have a very good connotation in Scripture. But in considering what was said to me concerning the faithfulness of the brother’s dog, it made me realize that there are two things that characterize these creatures: Faithfulness to one master. A good follower. This is what our Master, the Lord Jesus wants from each of His own. Are you a faithful follower of Him? Your Christian Friend, Jim Hyland
