If we listen carefully, if we pay close attention, the animals who accompany us in our lives have much to teach us about what God wants for us: An open, loving approach to the world. An ability to live in the present moment and let God provide. The utter rightness and wholeness of being in relationship. Healing. Faithfulness. How to be the people our pets think we are. We may be worldly masters to them, but they are certainly heavenly messengers to us.
