Do you remember when you had to deal with children to try and get them to see the error of their ways? It can be rather daunting and you wonder if they will ever get it. But you keep trying and sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. And the more you try the more you hope that you are getting the point across.
What am I getting at? Let me tell you about what has been happening in our household. We have a cat who is trying to test us to the limit and he has been very trying in the process. So what can we do about it? Over the passing of time we have tried everything and it seems that we are getting it all wrong. But just a few days ago we hit on an idea and it may be having an effect. You see, it is like this. Our big cat likes his food. And on top of his food he also likes the extra treats that come his way. So we hit upon the idea and that being that we remove the extra treats when he is being naughty. Sure, he is still very well fed but the extra treats are no longer a part of the equation. Ummmm…..I think that it may be working…at this moment!
This brings me to an interesting question. What does it take to get your attention? And when you attention is got do you listen and learn? Sometimes we all need to stop and listen to the wisdom of others, as hard as it may seem. So what about it. Are you willing to listen and to learn too?
Something for us all to ponder at this time. Until next time may you each be kept safe in His care.
