In Rememberance September 11,2001 A DOG FOR JESUS AS our Lord grew to manhood His faithful dog Would have followed Him all through the day While he preached to the crowds and made the sick well And knelt in the garden to pray. It is sad to remember that Christ went away To face death alone and apart With no tender dog following close behind To confort its Master's Heart. And when Jesus rose on Easter morn How happy He would have been As His dog kissed His hand and barked its delight For the One who died for all men.
Well the Lord has a dog now, I just sent Him mine The old pal so dear to me And I smile through my tears on this first day alone Knowing they're in eternity. Day after day,the whole day through Whatever my road inclined four feet said, " I am coming with you!" And trotted along behind. http://www.mamarocks.com/a_dog_forjesus.htm
MY PRE-OWNED DOG
I found the cutest pre-owned dog... At our local pound... He looked at me as if to say... Please don't let them put me down.
His tail wagged ... I saw him smile... Happy as can be... Did I come to pick a dog today... Or did he just pick me.
I decided to check out other dogs... Before making up my mind... But no other seemed to greet me... Like that little friend of mine.
A pre-owned pet that someone left... Perhaps 3 years old or more... But I didn't care how old he was... As we both walked out the door.
And as we got into my pre-owned car... Just before I started to drive... We both looked at one another... Knowing he'd always be by my side.
