From the furry side
|
Lion and lamb? I've got a nasty cold and have spent most of the past several days in bed. Sallie thinks this is a waste of time. Surely, she implies, you could take me for a walkie, if you're going to be home so much!
But I snuggle deeper under the covers and ignore her.
A couple of times Dolphin has come in to offer some saber-toothed tiger comfort. He walks across me, meowing some feline incantation, then curls up on my stomach and goes to sleep.
And Sallie allows him to do this, pushing her head under my hand for petting but not chasing him away!
It's far from Isaiah's vision of the redeemed earth, of course. In fact, Isaiah didn't write about the lion and the lamb at all. He spoke of the wolf and the lamb, and the lion and the yearling (Isaiah 11:6 and 65:25).
Nonetheless, I enjoy the peace and comfort my beasties bring me as I fight off this nasty bug.
