August 2011, Puerto Rico. I rescued a pit bull with generalized mange during a tropical storm. The airline almost didn't let him board. The pilot arrived an hour early "for reasons he couldn't explain." Divine orchestration in the details.
But from Blue's perspective, I wasn't obviously a rescuer. I was upheaval—everything familiar stripped away, replaced with uncertainty and discomfort.
That night, sitting on the floor at 2 AM watching him finally rest, God whispered: "This is how I rescue you."
This episode explores:
• Why rescue often feels like disruption first
• How trust develops before understanding
• What "rescue goes both directions" really means
• How the rescued eventually become rescuers
• Romans 8:28 in action
For anyone who's experienced disruption that later revealed itself as divine intervention. For everyone who's been both lost and found.
🐾 Episode Highlights:
• The moment I found Blue on that table in Puerto Rico
• The vet who couldn't certify him healthy
• The airline agent who "loved dogs"
• Blue's first night in the States
• What this taught me about God's patient presence
