Duke the Cat

This is Duke, our cat. If you’ve been reading my timelines, you will know how I was a cat hater and then turned into a cat lover! But now I think I am this cat’s servant! A willing and obliging servant, if I may add! This cat has won the heart of my family. .

Jesus is often referred to as the Lion of the tribe of Judah. He is also referred to as a Lamb. What a sharp contrast with the two animals. A lion, the bold king of the jungle. A lamb so lowly and meek.

Proverbs 19:12 NLT [12] The king’s anger is like a lion’s roar, but his favor is like dew on the grass.

There is a I like, I think the title is Surrounded by Michael W. Smith. There is a line that says, "You’ve got a lion inside those lungs.". As Christians, I believe the lion characteristics of Christ are not about our talents or how skilful or knowledgeable we are; the power of the lion in us roars louder the lesser we rely on our own strengths and empty ourselves for the filling of the Holy Spirit.

One of the ways of doing that is giving yourself to praise and worship, letting THE LION roar out of those lungs as you speak into situations that you know need to change through the power of Christ in you.
