When they purr, I smile


Our retired girl in her kitty bed

It is a sound I love to hear and yet cannot hear without one of them, without stretching out my hand and rubbing a head, an ear, a neck, a back.  It takes little to hear a purr from one of our furry friends (we have three) but we cannot make them purr just by smiling at them.

It takes action...effort...to receive the reward.

We will be rewarded in heaven one day in proportion to what we do here on earth.

Yes, we are saved by faith alone, "...not by works, so that no one can boast." Ephesians 2:9  But Scripture also tells us we will be rewarded in heaven based on works.  Those that have sown much will receive much and those that have sown little will receive little.  "The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully." 2 Corinthians 9:6

What do you hope to receive?

In His Grace...
