Yes, it's true. I waited and waited and it finally came out. It's just an online magazine, but they wanted me so I love them. You can read my humble offering at http://www.bellaonline.com/review/issues/winter2009/nf006.html
I just heard what I said run through my head; "they wanted me so I love them." Reminds me of a scripture; "We love, because He first loved us." (1John 4:19) Hmmm He wanted me, He wooed me, He accepted me, He led me straight into His arms. He provided a Way for me to come to Him before I even knew that's what I wanted. "In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins." (1John 4:10)
I visited a neighbor today. I have a neighbor that has 13 horses, boards some more, has a covered arena, beautiful stables, over 200 acres of incredible riding terrain... it was all there, right next door, I can walk there, and I never even knew it. Wow!
Sometimes things are right under our nose and we don't even see it. Spend some time today listening. When you're very still and quiet, can you hear it? Can you hear God calling to you and saying; "Come closer, I've some things to tell you." Are you listening?

Congratulations Pam! I just went and read your piece and really enjoyed it. I'm trying to get back into writing again but having trouble finding the motivation.
ReplyDeleteSo that is what happened! Getting horses is an unknown, no matter what owners may say. So sorry that you had such a experience so soon after getting the horses. Your right, peer pressure gets us to do things we ordinarily wouldn't do. We are glad you are on the mend. Your next horse needs to be a garunteed(sp) kids horse-we had one. The kids could do anything to her. Glad you are on the mend and feeling better.
