Here at the Meadow Religion plays a big role in our lives. The old guy is sort of old fashioned and us Collies like that. Why are we writing about that? Well, it gives you a bit of an insight about life here, a fuller picture of who we are. Collies are dogs ya know and the old Guy says if you want to learn about unconditional love of God study a dog. He says ppl can beat the snot out of a dog and it will still love them…. sort of like Jesus ya know. We find that interesting but would like to point out that Jesus was beaten up by us all for our sins, while the beatings of Dogs is just plain senseless for no reason. But, we get what he is saying.
The old guy says if he could love like a dog he would be closer to God but he says he has a part of him that hits back and he sometimes regrets it……
However, while the old guy beats himself up we love him anyways and he is right…. if he could love like we do, always forgiving no matter what, he would be closer to God. But, as it is he loves us for who we are and we love him for who he is…..
To celebrate God we put up this old song by one of Dad’s favorite singers….. we didn’t know he wrote this famous song… but its an old favorite here….

Unconditional love. The world need a lot more of that!
Yes it does..:)
Unconditional love is an amazing gift.
Yes it is…..nothing to add to your statement it is brilliant.
My Mom’s family was from the hills of Kentucky and her father used to pick that out on the banjo.. He’s been gone for over 40 years but I can still hear him playing and singing that tune… It was his favorite. Thanks for posting it. 🙂
