I was watching Frappie last night. It's becoming a nice way to wind down after Gabey goes to bed. I bring in some decaf Gevalia to the spare room, and sit in my soft blue chair to read, and watch Frappie. Last night, I was watching her enjoy the grass that I had grown and cut for her. It made me feel so good seeing her happy.
I love taking care of her. I love giving her new food, and water, and keep her cage clean. I put toys and paper bags out around the room, so I can watch her play with them, and chew the paper. I realized that, to a very small degree, this must be what God feels when He watches us. He gives us special things every day to give us joy. He does it because He loves us and loves taking care of us. Even when we don't show love to Him, He's still there watching out for us, just like me and Frappie. She is just a little wild bunny, and she hasn't grown a love for me, she still has some untamed wildness. Even so, I still enjoy watching her, and taking care of her. I have the hope that she'll, one day, be tame, and love me. I'm sure that's how God feels. He waits for us to love Him.
