Sunday February 22, 2009 - The Baby Goat












































As we were leaving for church we noticed a baby goat at the fence far away from the herd. We decided the goat's mommy would eventually come or the baby would join the herd. As we drove down the road, we realized we had forgotten something. Isaac said this was the providence of God. On the way back, we saw the goat in the middle of the ROAD, running right toward us. This road is a very heavily traveled road with a speed limit of 60mph. A car just missed hitting the baby as it ran across the road. We stopped the car in hopes that we might catch the frightened animal, though we had misgivings, for the goats would not come up to us before. This little goat came right up to the car. Charles jumped out of the car and picked him up. Shona drove back to the ranch with the baby in Charles' lap. Isaac stated that it was the Lord that made the goat calm the that we might be able to take it back safely. This was obviously true, for when we returned later that day, the goats once again would have nothing to do with us.
