You can't see me!



This little prairie dog jumped the wall around our backyard yesterday and soon found out what Border Collies do. Our dog corralled it into the corner or our backporch, but then didn't know what to do with it. The prairie dog stayed facing into this corner, in full view of all of us, for a long time, apparently thinking that if it cannot see us then we must not be able to see it!

This made a great illustration of our children's catechism question 11:

Q. Can you see God?
A. No, I cannot see God, but He can always see me

After that teaching point I took a shovel and...chased it out of our yard.
