God Provides, by Cathy Whitworth

As I prepared to go on my first mission trip, I worried about leaving behind my “four legged” children especially my dog who would have to go away to doggie day camp while the cats got to remain at home. Not only was it a disruption to their routine, but I would miss their companionship. However, God truly does know our needs and provides for us. 


At the work sites, we were greeted by a cat, dogs, and even an attack duck. In interacting with Snakes (a cat) and the dogs, we were able to take a needed break from the destruction all around us. Just spending a few minutes with one of the animals allowed me to go back to work with renewed energy and faith.

Philippians 4:19
But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

  1. I have to agree with you Cathy, that seeing the animals made each day a little more 'normal'....if there was such a thing when we were there! Perhaps a little bit of God's presence with us in our furry friends.
