Sometimes human communication falls short in conveying spiritual truth. Sometimes God speaks through whatever means He chooses--and often he chooses our four-legged friends. Paws to Reflect for Dog Lovers offers 60 reflections for those who seek to grow spiritually by observing the unconditional love and devotion of our pups. This devotional offers a mix of humorous and heart-warming lessons in creative chapters such as these: You Can't Judge a Cocker by Its Spaniel Footprints on the Pink Couch Growling for Grace The Hound of Heaven Cleanliness is Next to Impossible As we stand in awe of humble animal hearts, we can learn important life lessons about overcoming mistakes, loving without judgment, persevering with wisdom and grace, resting in the arms of the One who loves us, and more.

Paws to Reflect is a cute devotional. Each story begins with a Bible verse and then a practical lesson based on the story’s title. A wonderful devotional for dog lovers!
The devotional draws from a dog’s innate ability to unconditionally love his people and offers scriptural and spiritual insights. Each story is heartwarming.
As you read this charming devotional, you can’t help but draw the parallels between an animal’s love and the love God gives to us as humans. God’s love knows no bounds, is unconditional and He continues to love us even when we are distant and uncaring towards Him.
It would be quite simple to rush through the short devotional; however, to read it quickly would be an injustice to the concepts within.
I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
