Did
you know the Bible mentions only two talking animals? Each of these creatures
had a different message. The first to speak out was the serpent. This character
certainly wasn’t a model. If God was using this snake for a test drive, I can
see why he kept the mouths of the other animals closed. This snake in the grass
spoke words meant for evil. Later God allowed another animal to speak—the lowly
donkey. The beast of burden. This time the animal had words of wisdom.
Susan
K. Stewart expected dogs, cats, and the occasional goldfish would be all the
pets she’d need—until the day Susan met donkeys at a rescue center. A few years
after that fateful visit, three donkeys became part of the Stewart family.
Susan soon learned these humble creatures are still messengers of wisdom.
Donkey
Devos is
a collection of forty pearls Susan has learned from spending time learning
about her equine friends and chatting with them. She uses her experiences,
donkey facts, and Biblical donkey details to share the truths God has taught.
The whole family will delight in the donkey tales with a message from God.
BOOK EXCERPT
Don’t we get bored? A shiny, new thing comes along, or even a dull cardboard box full of the mundane, and we grab hold. We set aside that which doesn’t seem to be tasty enough or shiny enough.
Have you ever been bored at a worship service? We think things like we sang that song last month, or the pastor says the same prayer every week. When we’re supposed to be standing before Almighty God and giving him glory, we are slouched in muck of our own making.
Think about who we worship—the Creator of the universe, the all-powerful, the One. How in the world could our lives with him get boring? What has happened to the early excitement of worshipping our Lord? What changed? Truly, not God.
