PUPPY LOVE
“Wrap It Up”
   
Some were even in baskets
MY FRIEND HAD A DREAM
As I visited with
our Lord this morning, I had no idea that He was going to give me the
interpretation of my friend’s dream. She told it to me on the phone but I had
to set it aside until I finished what our Lord had me doing.
I was surprised
when He directed me back to the dream and began to show me what it meant. I
can’t tell it exactly as she did, but I can tell you what our Lord was showing
me.
She had a tormenting
dream about a little dog she had left in the care of something like a kennel
that was suppose to take good care of it. When she went to pick it up, she saw
MANY little dogs and they were all in poor shape. They had not been taken care
of. They were sick, starving, and dieing.
Then she noticed
that they were in a type of baby bed and her puppy was slipping through the
bars, unable to pull himself back up…too weak.
When she saw this,
she became very angry with the person she had trusted and who had allowed this
to happen to these helpless puppies.
WHAT I WROTE DOWN
This dream is
symbolic of all the little children and people in my friend’s life that she
desires to see God’s will be done in their lives.
“You left them in
the care of human hands….”, I felt the Lord said.
You need a New baby
bed and Care takers. From now on…you wrap them in soft blankets and one by one
take them to Jesus…God.
When they wake up,
they will run and play. (See this by faith and Praise God ahead of time.)
From the Spirit to the Natural.
Your heart is
right…but, you (and I) must continually place them back in God’s (pen, baby
bed, day care, kennel). Your Mercy Thoughts are like little puppies that keep
running out of the Right pen.
  
WORRY THOUGHTS
THAT
RUN TO YOU
Each time these
dear puppies or people cross our path, worry thoughts, like hurting little
puppies, run to us. We worry about them. We want to fix them. With our
prayers, we must pick them up, wrap them in a pretty, soft baby blanket, and
put them back in God’s beautiful Baby Bed in His clean, warm, safe House. His
Hand will respond to our prayers.
I’m not saying that
we shouldn’t help in natural situations when it is obvious that we can do
something. I am saying that we should not WORRY because worry for a Christian
shows a lack of faith in God. When we have done all we know to do in the
natural to be good caretakers and we don’t see the accomplishment of our own
hands or even sometimes our prayers, then we must remember Who our God is. And
we must have FAITH in HIM that He hears our prayers and we can TRUST HIM to do
the things we cannot do.
We all want to do
something. But, when we aren’t directed by the Lord, often the things we do
turn out to hurt the puppies more than heal them or set them free. So, it’s
important that we learn to hear from the Holy Spirit and follow His directions.
At the same time,
if some of us have not practiced and learned how to hear the Holy Spirit
directing us, God still looks on the intents of our hearts.
Would you believe
He loves you just as much as He loves those puppies? He desires that you
remain in PEACE. As you do, you are more of a sermon and blessing to those you
are praying for. And the only way I know to remain in this Peace, is to TRUST HIM…with the lives of those you are praying for.
END OF SELF
Every Christian
wants to help. And when each of us have come to the end of ourselves, we are
ready to LET GOD take over.
So, try to picture
yourself each time these “worry thoughts” come to your mind when you see a
puppy in need. Tell God what you see as their need. Wrap that baby up in a
pretty baby blanket and place that dear one back in God’s Special Baby Bed so
HE can restore them.
Mark 11:24 Therefore I say unto you,
What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive [them], and ye shall have [them].
Ephesians 6:13b... and having done all, to stand.
Stand on your Faith in God!
NO MATTER
HOW OFTEN OR HOW MANY TIMES
The Puppies Get Out
Pick them Up!
Wrap Them in a Soft Blanket  of Love, Faith and Prayer
And
Back Away
WHAT YOU CAN DO
 Love them…Love will
open doors of service.
 Pray for them…God hears
your prayers and is doing something in their lives whether you see it now or
not.
 No matter who or where
they are…keep them in His Perfect Day Care.
And some day you will hear them say: “Thanks for
choosing
The Very Best Place for Me.”
P.S. My friend Jo Ann and I are each buying a baby
blanket to keep where we can see it every day as a reminder to:
WRAP IT UP!
AND
TRUST GOD |
