WE ARE ANIMAL RESCUERS
Our job is to assist God's creatures. We were born with the drive to fulfill their needs. We take in helpless, unwanted, homeless creatures without planning or selection. We have bought dog food with our last dime. We have patted a mangy head with a bare hand. We have hugged someone vicious and afraid. We have fallen in love a thousand times. And We have cried into the fur of a lifeless body too many times to count. We have Animal Friends and friends who have animal friends. We don't often use the word "pet". We notice those lost at the road side and my heart aches. We will hand raise a field mouse and make friends with a vulture. We know of no creature unworthy of our time. We want to live forever if there aren't animals in Heaven, but We believe there are. Why would God make something so perfect and leave it behind? Some may think we are masters of the animals, but the animals have mastered themselves... something people still haven't learned. War and abuse make our hearts hurt for the world, but a rescue that makes the news gives us hope for mankind. We are a quiet but determined army and we are making a difference every day. There is nothing more necessary than warming an orphan, nothing more rewarding than saving a life, no higher recognition than watching them thrive. There is no greater joy than seeing a baby play who, only days ago, was too weak to eat. By the love of those who We've been privileged to rescue, we have been rescued. We know what true unconditional love really is, for we've seen it shining in the eyes of so many, grateful for so little. We are Animal Rescuers. Our work is never done. Our home is never quiet. Our wallet is always empty, but our heart is always full! Amen!
"Never, never be afraid to do what's right, especially if the well being of a person or an animal is at stake. Society's punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our soul when we look the other way."
