A couple of my favorite scriptures are Hebrews 10:23-24; 11:1. They speak of standing firm in out God and his faithfulness. As a child I always dreamed of having a horse. I love their gentleness even as they are so strong. I love to watch them run effortlessly. A couple of years ago I was given a chance to live this childhood dream.

My sweetie, Tommy & his dad answered a newspaper ad about a group of estimated 20 head horses. As they went out these horses were existing on 120 acreas with no human exposure or contact. Each time they went there were more horses. Final count reveals about 50. There were 3 studs each with their own band of mares. Tommy bought Promise for me & I bought Blessing and against all advice I brought Star home. Star was extremely sad looking but I had to have her. I have always been a succor for the underdog or in this case horse. The photos above are when we first brought the home & then today. What a difference a couple of years and lots of love makes. Each one has developed their own personality with Blessing being the sweet, gentle horse, Promise having to remind you she is in charge and Star.... well, Star has to check out everything and everybody, the adventuresome one. If you have anything in your hand it must be for her and she will try to take it from you. She loves the water, whether a pond, water hose, or sprinkler. She will chase a ball. Stand quietly while you push and pull of her. I am so glad I brought her home. She has brought many laughs in the past couple of years. She loves to run or race the truck, as well as anything new that might come up.
