God Speaks Thru a Kitty Cat

ok, i know what u are probably thinkin' if u are reading this and while it may be true that I am a little off my rocker, I've heard God speak yet again! Not thru a Bible Verse,although I've since been pointed to a relevant verse, not from a preacher or a hymn or oneof those fancy new worship choruses but simply thru a kitty cat. First let me give u some background. I am definately NOT a cat person. They seem kind of snobbish and it's always as if they are up to no good. They don't listen, they sleep ALL the time and they have razor sharp claws and tiger-like teeth...(did i mention they bury their own poop)?But "Skitty" is different. First of all my wife is deathly allergic 2 cats...she's not at all allergic 2 "Skitty" as she calls her. Could she be some wierd hypo-allergenic brand of cat,I don't know but she doesn't shed as much as a normal cat.

"Skitty" wandered up on our porch as a little wet kitten about April of this last year. She had been seperated from her mama kitty and was all alone and lost. She still had the little blue kitten eyes and was just an itty-bitty thing. I have to say I didn't warm up to theidea of having a cat very well. Past experience had taught me not feed the little stray animals and most certainly don't let them into your heart. Well, after a few weeks, I fell head over heels for this little kitten. We fed her and let her in the house occasionally and she was the most amazing little creature. She kept us in stitches running around and doin' all the stuff that kittens do. It took her a while to warm up to us to. At first, we would haveto leave food out on the porch and she would come and eat when she thought no-one was watching. We would open the door and try 2 let her in but she always scurried away. One day we opened the door and she crept on in the house, very cautiously at first, and she gradually got more and more comfortable around us. It's gotten to the point where now when she comes in she almost begs for attention.

We don't intend to keep her as an inside cat though. We both feel that she'd lose her cat instincts and just lay around all day. She was born outside and she needs 2 know that she has the option of going back out if she so desires. Here's where God spoke thru "Skitty"I was petting her one day and we had one of those petting marathons, my wife and I call them "love-fests" Skitty gets all up in your business and rubs noses with ya and slobbers all over U, it rocks! (All the while she purrs like a little motorboat.) Anyway, after the "love-fest" was over she walked over to the door like she wanted out. I was not gonna holdher against her will so I opened the door to let her out. She just looked up at me with the sweetest little kitty cat eyes as if to say "na, i think I'll stay in here with you". So i closed the door and went to sit back down. "Skitty" ran over to me and jumped in my lap andwe started round 2 of the "love-fest". At that point God spoke to me and said "see Davis U are like that little kitten, u have the choice to do whatever U want to do. U don't have tospend time with Me but I sure do love it when you do, especially knowing U chose to spendtime with me when u could've been elsewhere." God showed me how much of a gentlemanHe is. He would never force himself on me. He keeps the door open and gives me the choice/chance to spend time with him and He LOVES it when I do and He loves it when you do. When was the last time u had a "love-fest" with God?

BTW/ if u are wondering, the cat never actually spoke with the audible voice of God butwouldn' that be cool? One of his many names is "The Lion of Judah"
Psalm 19
1 The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
2 Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they display knowledge.
3 There is no speech or language
where their voice is not heard.
4 Their voice goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.
