This is Max Lakato. Some years ago, a Rottweiler attacked our golden retriever puppy at a kennel.

The animal climbed out of its run and into Mollies and nearly killed her. I wrote a letter to the dog's

owner, urging him to put the dog to sleep. But when I showed the letter to the kennel owner, she

begged me to reconsider.

What the dog did was horrible, but I'm still training him.

I'm not finished with him yet.

God would say the same about the Rottweiler who attacked you.

What he did was unacceptable, inexcusable, but I'm not finished yet. Your enemies still figure into God's

plan. Their pulse is proof. God hasn't given up on them. They may be out of his will, but not out of

his reach. And you honor God when you see them, not as his failures, but as his projects.
