Kangaroo whisperer


I woke up with more of a PMA (positive mental attitude) today, and thought I'd share a story with you.

On the weekend I was in South Australia at the farm belonging to my folks, and caught a kangaroo! A little joey had escaped and had been quite flighty before that. Anyway, I approached him quietly and thought he looked interested, so I got a bit closer and he took two jumps and dived into my lap and curled up! Unbelievable!

I wrapped him up and sat on the couch to watch a movie, and he spent the whole time sucking on my t-shirt! (I do have a photo of that but I was in my PJs so you're not going to see it)...

I remember years ago, a speaker at NCYC talking about God "making a pass" at people. Those moments where simple things of creation just seem like God reminding us about the awe of this world and God's kingdom in it.
What a moment.
