A TRUE STORY I WROTE FOR DOGGY NEWS
On Saturday I was down to my last slice of bread, and the village shop was shut till Monday. A new customer brought a little dog to the boarding kennels for one night only. She said, “He likes toast. Will you give him a slice of toast in the morning?”
“Yes,” I replied grudgingly.
After she had gone, I thought, “Why should I give my last slice of bread to a dog? Why don’t I just eat it now? She will never know! I picked up the slice and toyed with temptation but then I remembered the customer’s face – that look of anxiety because she was entrusting her beloved pet to a stranger. I had assured her that I would try to make the dog feel at home. I had said to her that I would give the dog toast, so that is what I had to do. It was a matter of integrity. The devil once tempted Jesus to eat bread illegitimately. Jesus replied, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.” He refused to compromise and eat the bread.
I put the bread away. I decided I would do the Christian thing and be a person of integrity. Later that afternoon, a friend came round. She said, “I can’t do the communion service at church tomorrow. Will you do it for me? Here’s the bread. You just cut off a chunk for the church and keep the rest yourself.”
“A pleasure!” I chirped!
On Sunday morning, both the dog and I had toast! It was the best toast I ever had! God will provide our daily bread when we do things HIS way!
