Are You A Cat Or A Dog? -Part One of Organizing Your Heart



Everyone knows the differences between cats and dogs. Cats are solitary. They are somewhat selfish, manipulative and hide when they are frightened. They are more attached to their environment than other cats....or people. Dogs on the other hand are pack animals. They are loyal, trusting and reliant. They crave attention and know that their actions dictate their own happiness as well as their masters. They will still do their best even when they don't get a reward each time.

A dog and a cat have completely different mindsets. One is looking for a life of luxury while the other is hoping to serve the best they can. If God could choose a mindset for us to have, I think it would relate more to that of a dog. We need to always be waiting for a sign from Him. Psalm 33:20-22 Always be willing to do whatever it takes to achieve His will. Luke 18:22-24 We need to completely rely on Him for all of our needs and not only run to Him when we are frightened but when we are happy. Proverbs 3:5-6 Sometimes my mindset is wrong and I have to shift from self-focused to serving. God designed us to think on our own and we need to make sure we have the right mindset. Ephesians 2:10

So let's clear our minds and hearts and listen to what God's plans and resolutions are for us this year!
