Rocky Kanaka, who shared Bear’s story on YouTube, was deeply shocked by his condition. He said, “He is, honestly, I don’t know how he’s still here.”

Bear was found near a Chick-fil-A, likely searching for food. At first, Bear was wary of Rocky. He didn’t make eye contact and turned away. But Rocky was patient. He offered Bear treats and spoke to him gently. Gradually, Bear started to trust him. He began sniffing Rocky and even made brief eye contact.

A special moment occurred when Rocky called Bear a “good boy.” Bear’s reaction was touching. He wagged his tail and looked at Rocky. This showed how much positive words mattered to Bear, who had been through so much neglect.

Verse of the Day

“that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation. Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God.”

2 Corinthians 5:19-20
