And yes the cat was on my lap and he was making the point clear that on my lap was the place to be until…..
There I was with the cat on my lap. I was giving him a good pat and he was enjoying it all very much. And I was also enjoying it very much as I do not have either of them on my lap all that much. But then the scene changed very quickly. You see, it was time for me to write this story and I was wondering as to how I could get the cat off my lap. Yet I knew that it would be easy. All that was needed was for my wife to sit down in one of the lounge chairs and that the cat would soon move to where she was.
And so we tried it and it worked very well. All it took was for my wife to sit down and the cat was there even before the act was completed. As a matter of fact my wife nearly sat on the cat. What does this tell me? That the cat loves my wife more than me, and yet I am done! Who goes out and the gets the food for the cat? I think that the cat needs to get its values right.
And so I ask the question as to what I can learn from this? What are my values? Where do I put my trust? Who has my attention, and why? And when you take in the world we live in today, then how we need to be clear in our minds on some of these things. And for us all the best starting place is to know the one who put all things into place and gave to us all the breath of life. Something to think about for the week ahead.
