Are you a quiet laid-back feline type with peripheral vision scanning each detail around you, or are you more like a gerbil on a wheel, running as fast as you can, completely focused on the task and missing the scenery? This book was inspired by a black, bushy-tailed cat named Sammy, who was found lounging on a desk with his feet firmly planted on God’s Word. His eyes examined the world around him. Who but God would create such a scene and for what purpose, but to teach us to be quiet and know him? If that is your goal, stop where you are, put down the cell phone and laptop, place your hands in your lap, and in your quietness, look at each item around you. Everything you see is a specimen of God’s creation and a possible tool of learning. It may serve as a scalpel, or a potter’s wheel, shaping you into the character of Christ. You will be surprised at the unique tools God will use to beautify you. He will not leave you in your grungy rags. He loves you far too much, but, just as you must take time to shop for your earthly clothes, choosing your spiritual garments requires you to Paws for a Moment with God.
