​Hi everyone I’m Zoie, I live with Lucy and Lynn and I too am a member of the St. Matthew by the Lake Pet Family.  Lynn and Lucy really saved my life.  I was what some call a “failed adoption” and almost lost my life at the shelter. Lucy and Lynn came along just in time to adopt me and that saved my life..  I was not the easiest kitty to have when I came to live with Lucy and Lynn.  I had been abused and didn’t know that I could trust them. I actually had nightmares where my paws would jerk and I would cry in my sleep.  Those were difficult times. This May, it will be 8 years since I came to live with Lucy and Lynn and I have learned to trust them.  When we have been abused and/or heard harmful untruths about people or about God it becomes difficult to trust.  I had to experience the love and kindness from Lucy and Lynn for a long time before I let myself trust.  If you have someone who is having difficulty with their faith, trust and belief in God, please don’t give up on them.  Sometimes it takes those of us who have been hurt a long time before we come around and learn it is true that God loves us all with unconditional love.  Love so amazing that he gave us his son Jesus who gave his life for us all.
