Running with the Coyotes
It seemed impossible that our big Great Dane would not chase the coyotes, but instead just ran with them...Two ahead and one behind him...I, in the mean time was calling him back to me...He thinking he would just follow along on this run kept running...Realizing this was not a good plan for my dog as big as he is, he is still a dog and those were coyotes...Finally going inside the house to fetch something from the fridge, I made my way out the back gate into the forest to call Grayson off his focus...The coyotes had gone into under brush in the manzanita, that he couldn't get through, thankfully...He finally came when he saw a treat in my hand that smelled like a hot dog...Beef of course...As I brought him into the safety of our fence line the thoughts started coming in quick succession...After I posted a short blurb on Facebook found that the trick for coyotes is to let the dog run with them and they will take them to a secluded place and then turn on the dog and kill it . So thankful for this information, now I will keep closer eye on him when he is out on the big acreage...However these thoughts kept pressing on my mind...We as humans can run with the devils imps thinking it is just a game and then we are lured into something much deeper and death can be the end of us...Maybe not so much physical, but spiritual death...For His Holy word says , "the wages of sin is death". So if the Lord is out hunting for you to bring you back to him with some wonderful treat, made and designed especially for you to respond to, come to Him for He will bring you back into the protection of His fence line...The commandments are His perfect fence line...For when we are safely under his protection we will know that it isn't wise to run with "coyotes" even if it only is a frolic in the woods, death may there await.
