| God Spankings |

Ever felt like the Father God gave you a spanking. You know a trial or tribulation that you think the master is just going to rip up your posterior? Thank God he hasn't turned me into a pillar of salt yet.
Well even with baby Luke I can find a God lesson. See he is about 3 or 4 now in human years, as he is 14 weeks in dog years. I take him out often to take a break or smoke (yeah I know shame on me). He will do his business and what not some times he will just sit and dare me to come out and get him.
Today was the worse this morning. He went out, so did I in my socks, it is drizzling rain today. He went further, I called, he ignored. He heard the birds... those stinking birds. He thinks he is a cat, he plays with string, or chases butterflies. He saw a cardinal. He ran clear out by the ditch by the street.
I was so mad I wanted to spank him severly and make him remember this. I have only spanked him a few times. The first few he acted like this, and when he tried to jump on my grandson Braden, when he came to visit saturday. Braden is 18 months.
So I decided it was probably my fault for walking out in my socks and so I walked towards the ditch all the time yelling out Luke's name. Trying to be sweet, trying to be mean. As usual when I got really close to him he made a bee line for the house. Then he tried to rebel a little more. When I finally coaxed him into the house. I didn't give him a treat. I wish he would just learn I am his master, and obey?
Isn't that how God treats us? For our own protection he lets us stray or rebel a little against Him the Master of all. Then the concequenses of our past or whatever makes us feel like we didn't get a treat. But in reality, He was just protecting us from harm, like Luke and the street.
25:21 May integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for thee. Sometimes God spanking hurt a little, sometimes they bring safety and peace. Sometimes they just help you grow into the person He wants you to be. Sometimes they keep you from the dangers of the streets.
I believe dogs go to heaven, cause they hear whispers from the ultimate Master. Even baby Luke

My little "Tincup" behaves the same way. lol. Excellent post! I often relate to my parents and how they had to correct me. I know now for my own good!! I truly believe this was Our Father's way us teaches us His Love and His Correction. |

CherylfromGA - Amen sister. How many times did I say, "why didn't I just listen to mom and dad." If I had a dollar for how many times I said that I would be rich.
Doyle I too am a little stubborn. Guess He knew that already cause He knew that before we were born. Thanks |

I was wondering the same thing about God the a couple weeks ago. Wondering if He ever just wanted to spank us or make us put or nose on the wall. We are such rebels |
