Varmits

I have been watching a muskrat for a few days building a home on top of the ice. He (or She ) has been carefully chewing open the hole each morning and bringing up mud and carefully constructing an elaborate home that as a human I can see will only melt and collaspe into the water in a few weeks. It seems it is kind of like how our lives are when we work so hard at this life and forget about our eternal life. God must look at us like I look at the poor doomed muskrat. Mixed pity and humour...well I am sure He does not smirk at our weaknesses like I do at that poor creatures. Well off to feed this earthly home.........
