This past week has been so hectic for me.. The past weekend I experienced one of the most traumatic moments of my life. My parents, Jennifer, and I were on our way to Sam's when we received a phone call from Angela. She sounded extremely panicked telling us that she heard our chihuahua make a loud cry and as she went downstairs she saw that he was stuck under our fence. So we rushed home not knowing what to expect. As we arrived, we saw King stuck under the fence and his eyes were blood-shot red. Apparently he went through a hole in the fence and got through to our neighbor's backyard. Their dog had attacked King as he was trying to escape. We panicked and rushed him over to the nearest emergency hospital. They told us that we needed to drive up to an animal specialist, located in college station. As a result, we drove this distance to get the help he needed. Thankfully everything was okay. We went back to A&M on Friday to pick him up and now he is in the process of healing.
Today, our pastor at church was talking about God's love for us. He brought up the incident that happened to King as an example. Saying that when King got into this accident, we didn't think "maybe we should just get rid of King and start over with a new puppy". Like Jesus, when we make the wrong choices and 'cross the fence', He does not decide to give up on us. He is willing to pay what ever price it costs to get us back, like how we were willing to spend $3,200 on King. When we saw King stuck, our hearts literally broke for him; this is how Jesus feels when he sees us making the wrong choices.
His love for us is deeper than any love on this earth.
