...brings BLESSINGS! Aliyah learned this during our Summit weeks and learned it in real life tonight. The cat who has adopted us and hangs out on our porch hasn't been around all day today or last night either--anywhere. She would check to see if he was around anywhere and there weren't any signs of him--all day. That is out of character for him.
Tonight, I asked her to clean up her stuff. She kind of didn't really want to do it because it was hard work. I told her that I didn't think Tufsey would come back until she started obeying--not that I really knew anyway when he would come back. Aliyah spent the next several minutes cleaning her room--cheerfully. Keirah wanted to pray at bedtime so we prayed. Aliyah's prayer ended like this..."God, please keep Tufsey safe". They went to bed listening to their cd. I went upstairs to fold laundry.
I had to close the window since it was chillier and I looked out. I could see a bit of white in the next block. I made a little noise and the white thing moved. Then a car came down the street--oh great... Luckily, the car turned and there was Tufsey running toward the house. I went downstairs and got to the back door just in time to be greeted by meowing. He even pawed at the door. I went to Aliyah's room and asked her if she really thought that Obedience brought blessings?? She said, "yes". I asked her if she thought Jesus answered prayers. She said, "yes". I told her to come with me to the back door. She was thrilled to see him!! He is sleeping on the adirondack chair all curled up.
