Half Cat, Half Rabbit

We used to have a cat named Mitsy. She lived with us for 4 years when my mother-in law lived with us,then she left(I was too boring) and took Mitsy with her. She is the most beautiful cat that I have ever seen,perfect in every way,except for her back feet. They are huge,look just like rabbit's feet. Her father or mother must have been a bunny.We called her the half cat,half rabbit. I don't want to be a half Christian,half not. It's easy to be a Christian when you are in church, or with your fellow believers. I want to be ALL CHRISTIAN, ALL THE TIME. It's tough out there in the world.One of my favorite books, My Utmost For His Highest,makes many references to being every bit Christian,every day,toiling in obscurity,doing the daily grind,doing life.I absolutely don't have it in me to even come close to that ideal,but if I ask for HIS grace,and HIS power and HIS help,and rely on HIM, I can just do my thing and let HIM shine forth from me.
