She was only a year old when I found her incarcerated at the police department pound. I claimed her and sometime later she claimed me. Her fur was bright red and she was a chow-retriever mix. We named her Lady. Every man past middle-age in my town has a dog and pick up to go to the dump with on Saturdays.
Thirteen years later we were taking our final truck ride together to see the vet. We both knew this was the way it had to be. The vet was very understanding and the procedure was carried out in the front seat of my Tacoma with my hand petting her.
King David made this heart-wrenching statement in:
1 Kings 2:2
I go the way of all the earth;
We can’t go through life without the experience of “the way of all the earth,” and some day we will experience it for ourselves. The question is: Are we ready for that event?
Think about it.
