TO FEED A DOG
Perhaps people are not as resistant to truth as to the way we present truth. A woman read somewhere that dogs were healthier if fed a tablespoon of cod liver oil each day. So each day she followed the same routine… she chased her dog until she caught it, wrestled it down, and managed to force the fishy remedy down the dog’s throat. Until one day when, in the middle of this grueling medical effort, the bottle was kicked over. With a sigh, she loosened her grip on the dog so she could wipe up the mess. To her surprise the dog trotted over to the puddle and began lapping up what had been spilled. THE DOG LOVED COD LIVER OIL! It was just the owner’s method of application the dog objected to. From Youthworker, “Awaken Your Students to Scripture,” by Bill McNabb & Steven Mabry, Summer, 1995, pg. 43
