Jesus And The Animals
"Jesus was the fountain of healing mercy for the world; and through all those secluded years at Nazareth, His life flowed out in currents of sympathy and tenderness. The aged, the sorrowing, and the sinburdened, the children at play in their innocent joy, the little creatures of the groves, the patient beasts of burden-all were happier for His presence. He whose word of power upheld the worlds would stoop to relieve a wounded bird. There was nothing beneath His notice, nothing to which He disdained to minister." {Desire of Ages, p.74}
"Every living creature, from the smallest insect up to the man, is daily dependent upon His providential care. In the beautiful words of the psalmist, "These wait all upon Thee... That Thou givest them they gather: Thou openest Thine hand, they are filled with good." Psalm 104:20, 21, 27, 28." {Patriarchs and Prophets, p.115}
Thought To Remember :
God cares about the animals and He also cares about you. Don't forget! |
