| Father God, guide me today to do all things that will bring glory and honor to You. Amen.
This is my EVERY morning prayer. I NEEDED this more Tuesday morning . I had my mare " Honor Reds Memory" " MiMi". 1:30 am heard her against the fence, this had to be a God thing because she was in a BIG turn out, she was colicing. I ran got her up gave her meds, walked her till 2 am , husband came out walked her I hooked on trailer, calling emergency vets frantically found one that would call me back at 2:30. Loaded her headed to vet she got down in trailer 3 times, by 3:15am decision was made to out her down, she was in so much pain NO meds were relieving , twisted gut.
I had to take this week to lose myself in Jesus, so much that everything around me faded away and His presence filled me to the brim with love, peace, and comfort.
" MiMi" holds a special place in my heart. 9 yrs ago, I posted on BHW, a lady name Ronda Hilker messages me. She told me a horse fell in her at Tulsa Ok on the third barrel, she was bedridden. She ask me why God left her alive. I said God has a purpose for you. Start living for your spirit soul, and your body will follow. A year later she ask me for my phone number. She said Sheila, I AM WALKING! Doing for myself. I know I will never to be able to ride again. I have this 4 year old mare I want to give you for bringing me back in alignment with Jesus. Ronda lives In Elwood, Nebraska, I live in Odessa, Texas. 13 hr drive. As it was I was going to D & G in Graham that next week. Deby Green from Oklahoma happened to be going to Ronda's pick up a colt, and she said she will meet you, me, at Graham with Honor Reds Memory. I paid diesel for her to bring her. And to this day I have never me Ronda. But we are connected through Christ.
But what I need to do was experience more often getting lost in Jesus. meditating on His love and mercy. Seeking to know Him in a deeper level. Focusing on how I can learn to follow more closely His steps. Jesus calls on us every single day to live for Him, making decisions that help us replace a self centered life with a sacrificial one. As we get lost in Him. We"ll discover new richness in our relationship , new opportunities for a renewed meaning and purpose in our lives, with exceedingly great value. Matthew 10:39 Jesus said, " Whoever finds their life will lose it. And whoever loses their life for my sake will find it. For it is WITH God ALL Things are possible . Have a VERY BLESSED Friday and Weekend ALL!
