The Stuck Kitten

Our family recently acquired this.  Or we're
at least trying it out for a week.

We weren't looking for a kitten, I've got enough to do.  But a friend needed to find her a home quick.

She is very cute and the kids love her.  The problem is she keeps climbing up on top of our RV and getting stuck.  She has spent more time up there than on the ground.  Every evening after work, my husband goes out to get her down.  The sweet man is out there in his work clothes climbing on top of things and rescuing this kitten.  Again.

It struck me yesterday how much this is like our Heavenly Father.  No matter how many times we get stuck, He comes to rescue us again.

Luke 15:3-7
3 Then Jesus told them this parable: 4 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ 7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.
