Everyday when I arrive home from school, Riley greets me at the door with his friendly, "mrow." As I put my things down, he prances around my feet and continues his, "mrow, mrow," but now, it is not so much friendly as it is a little demanding.
I sit down to read my mail, and he decides it would be fun to put his claws in my pants....."RILEY!!!" I fuss at him and walk over to pour some food in his bowl....surely, he is just hungry, now he will leave me alone!
He eats a few bites, but as I walk away, he follows me, still prancing around my feet, sometimes almost tripping me.
"Riley! I gave you food! What's the problem?"
Finally, I pick him up and pet him for a few minutes. He purrs contentedly. When I put him down he goes and eats his food and plays for a while.
He didn't want food....he wanted me...If only I would come more often to my Father's presence desiring Him, and not just the things I want or need!
