A heartwarming video of a young girl reuniting with the donkey she raised after years apart has touched thousands of viewers across social media.
Most people don’t think twice about donkeys. They see them as stubborn, ordinary animals that are good for nothing but hauling heavy loads. But that couldn’t be further from the truth. These are some of the most loving, affectionate creatures God ever made.
Jesus Himself chose a donkey for His triumphal entry into Jerusalem. What the world saw as worthless, the Lord gave a name and a purpose. That says a lot.
In the video, the girl is standing by a fence when the donkey first notices her. And the reaction is instant. The donkey starts making excited sounds and runs straight toward her like a long-lost friend coming home.
What happens next shows how affectionate donkeys are. It hugs her over and over by placing its head on both of her shoulders. They haven’t seen each other for years, but clearly, that didn’t matter one bit.
