HOW THE DONKEY CAME TO HAVE HIS CROSS

Everyone knows that the little donkey carries a cross on his back.  Most
people don't know the legend of the donkey's cross.  The Story is told that the
little donkey that had been Jesus' mount on Palm Sunday, came to the hill of
Calvary.  
Seeing the tragic event occurring there he wished with all his heart he had
been able to carry the cross for Jesus as he was the proper one to carry heavy
burdens.  The donkey turned his back on the sight, but he could not leave
because he wished to stay until all was over because of his love for Jesus.  
In reward for the loyal and humble love of the little donkey the Lord caused
the shadow of the cross to fall across his back and left it there for the donkey
to carry forevermore as a sign that the love of God, no matter how humble
carries a reward for all to see.

I have no idea where this story came from, but I sure sounds true to me.  If it is not, I still like to believe it is. 

WE ARE CARING FOR GOD'S CREATURES AND LOVING EVERY MINUTE OF IT.

 IF ONE DOES NOT HAVE AN ANIMAL TO LOVE, THEN PART OF ONES SOUL IS UNAWAKENED.
