Blog Post 15 Thor

​Hi everyone I’m Thor and I live with Nick, Caroline, Peter and Gemma. I am delighted to be a member of the St. Matthew by the Lake pet family.  I was given the name Thor because when I was a mere pup, I tried to carry around toys that were larger than I was and sling them around like the mighty Thor of mythology would his big hammer.  Then I grew up and decided brains, at least for me, were more important than brawn. You see, I love to be with people and sleeping alone in my own bed is, well lonely and boring.  I try to sneak into Peter’s room and sleep with him when or if I can get away with it.  I was almost successful one night but Caroline caught me.  I made it all the way to Peter’s bed.  Because I love people so much, I can relate to all those out there who are not able to see their favorite people during this pandemic and especially those who live by themselves.  It is tough and I would love to just lay my head on your lap and be there for you.  Although I can’t be there with you, there is someone who is with you all the time during this pandemic, before it started and will be with you when it is finally over.  That someone is our Triune God; Father, Son and Holy Spirit.  You and I are not alone at all, God is with us walking beside us, living inside and surrounding us with reminders of God’s presence through all of God’s beautiful creation.
