SEE friendly Rover looking up at us, as though he has the greatest confidence in us! Is it not this confidence that makes dogs so obedient to their masters? We can well learn a lesson from the little boy who said, “I wish I were like my doggie: he always pleases to mind, and I don’t.”
If it makes us feel happy to have our friends and even the animals trust us, how pleasing it must be to the Lord Jesus for us to put our entire confidence in Him, and look to Him in full trust as our Saviour and Friend.
Then let us put our confidence in the Lord, and ask Him to enable us to avoid evil, and to overcome wrong things that make our lives unfruitful to Him.
