I contribute devotions\u2014little spiritual stories with a takeaway lesson and a prayer\u2014to our annual devotional book, Daily Guideposts<\/a>.<\/em> This morning when I got to work, I opened up an e-mail from another Daily Guideposts<\/em><\/a> writer, Carol Kuykendall, who had just finished reading my devotion for the day. Carol and I have a few things in common, including dogs, especially golden retrievers.<\/p>\n

I write a lot about my dogs and what they teach me. In fact, I wrote a book for Guideposts<\/em> about my late golden retriever called Always By My Side: Life Lessons From Millie and All the Dogs I\u2019ve Loved<\/a>.<\/em> When my wife and I lost Millie to cancer a few years ago, we were devastated. Eventually we overcame our grief and found another golden, a puppy we named Grace.<\/p>\n

Carol\u2019s golden, Kemo, saw both Carol and her husband through several years of cancer treatments. Kemo was always by their side. Recently Kemo passed on. Carol was so heartbroken, she wasn\u2019t sure she could ever get another dog. Finally she was ready. Until she read my devotion.<\/p>\n

I\u2019d written about what a handful Gracie had been as a puppy, masticating almost everything in her path, including TV remotes, phone chargers, credit cards, a shower curtain\u2014you name it.<\/p>\n

\u201cEdward, I\u2019m not sure I could handle another puppy.\u201d<\/p>\n

I assured her Gracie had grown into a magnificent, responsible adult dog, one my world practically revolved around. \u201cDidn\u2019t you read my prayer at the end of the devotion? I asked God for the gift of greater patience. That\u2019s exactly what he and Gracie gave me.\u201d<\/p>\n

I hope I reassured Carol. What struck me as more interesting, though, was the way a devotion had brought us together. That\u2019s what stories do. They draw us closer. I can\u2019t help but mention that readers love stories about God\u2019s creatures. If you haven\u2019t heard by now, we have a new magazine, All Creatures: The Animals Who Share Our Lives<\/a>.<\/em> If you\u2019re still working on your Christmas list, I have three suggestions: Daily Guideposts<\/em><\/a>, All Creatures<\/a> <\/em>and Always By My Side<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
