Received today the following "good 'un"!!!
Horse-Sense
Just up the road from my home is a field,
with two horses in it.
From a distance, each looks like every other horse.
But if one stops the car, or is walking by,
one will notice something quite amazing.
Looking into the eyes of one horse will disclose that he is blind.
His owner has chosen not to have him put down,
but has made a good home for him.
This alone is amazing.
Listening, one will hear the sound of a bell.
Looking around for the source of the sound, one will see
that it comes from the smaller horse in the field.
Attached to her bridle is a small bell.
It lets her blind friend know where she is, so he can follow her.
As one stands and watches these two friends,
one sees how she is always checking on him,
and that he will listen for her bell and then
slowly walk to where she is,
trusting that she will not lead him astray.
Like the owners of these two horses,
God does not throw us away just because
we are not perfect or because we have
problems or challenges.
He watches over us and even brings others into our lives
to help us when we are in need.
Sometimes we are the blind horse being guided by God
and those whom he places in our lives.
Other times we are the guide horse, helping others see God.
May we always stay attuned, never be blind nor deaf
to the needs of others,
and continue to pray for one another.
Thank you, TC, for being His catalyst for bringing
so many of us together here, reminded of
and acting upon the message.....
