Philippians 4:13-“I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”

EVANGELISM

Officer Tori Matthews of the Southern California Humane Society received an emergency call: a boy’s pet iguana had been scared up a tree by a neighbor’s dog. It then fell from the tree into a swimming pool where it sank like a brick. Officer Matthews came with her net. She dived into the pool, emerging seconds later with the pet’s limp body.

As the Arizona Republic (2/14/’95) reported, Officer Matthews commented, “Well, you do CPR on a person and a dog, why not an iguana?” So, she locked lips with the lizard.

“Now that I look back on it,” she said, it was a pretty ugly animal to be kissing, but the last thing I wanted to do was tell this little boy that his iguana had died.” The lizard responded to her efforts and made a full recovery.

Tori Matthews didn’t see a water-logged reptile: she saw a little boy’s beloved pet. We may never see the beauty on some people, but when we realize how much they mean to God, we’ll do what we can to keep them from drowning.
