Soon by: Hillsong

As i lay here tonight, prayin for my grandfather, this song spoke to me. maybe it will speak to you:)

Soon and very soon
my King is coming
robed in righteousness
and crowned with love
When I see Him
I shall be made like Him
Soon and very soon

Soon and very soon
I'll be going
to the place He has prepared for me
There my sin erased
my shame forgotten
Soon and very soon

I will be with the One I love
with unveiled face I'll see Him
There my soul will be satisfied
Soon and very soon

Soon and very soon
see the procession
The angels and the elders
round the throne
At his feet I lay
my crowns my worship
Soon and very soon

I will be with the One I love
With unveiled face I'll see Him
There my soul will be satisfied
Soon and very soon

Though I have not seen Him
my heart knows Him well
Jesus Christ the lamb
the Lord of heaven

I will be with one I love
With unveiled face I'll see Him
There my soul will be satisfied
Soon and very soon
Soon and very soon
Soon and very soon

no reins

hey guys!

i have ridin with no reins before, but i have not done it since i have been devoting my life to Christ. Riding with no reins really makes you trust your horse. it made me feel so good about my horse and i and my life. your horse and you really become one, just as we should with Christ.

I Belong

hey! last night we sang this song and i just cant get it out of my head today. its called I Belong, and its by Kathryn Scott and Mildred Rainey.

Verse 1
Not angels, nor demons, no power on earth or heaven
Not distance, nor danger, no trouble now or ever

Pre Chorus
Nothing can take me from your great love
Forever this truth remains

Chorus
I belong, I belong to you X2

Verse 2
Not hardship, nor hunger, no pain or depth of sorrow
Not weakness, nor failure, no broken dream or promise

maybe someone out there needs this today, or will find some light in it like i have.

2 Corinthians 3:17

these lyrics stood out to me tonight at church:

where the spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom

getting to know me

hey everyone, i thought you should get to know me!

my interest with horses started a long time ago. throughout my years of riding i have mostly only ridin hunter, english, but just this past year i thought "hey, western looks fun!" so i started western with my friends horse and LOVED IT! through my experience western people= searchin for Christ, and english people= all they want/have is MONEY! not the thing to be going after in this world. now i am not saying that all western people are like that, and i am not saying that all english people are like that. but from my experience, thats how it is.

i kinda found Christ through the first Quarter Horse i rode. we fell in love instantly. he was sold away, every night for one year i prayed to God "please let him come home, even if home is not with me, but where he is, isnt home." one year later He brought my horse home, and i was happy to see that his home was with me. in the meantime i had adopted a Thoroughbred mare. she was never my Quarter Horse. it wasnt until recently that my mare and i have become the best of friends again. i was always trying to make her like my Quarter Horse.

NOTE to horse people out there: never measure one horse to another, they just get mad at you!

i had to put my Quarter Horse down last September, hardest thing i ever had to do. i am just thankful that we can help our animals like that and not have to see them suffer, unlike out human loves when they are sick.
I think that putting my horse down is when I REALLY started to go after Christ. it is so neat to see how He works in our lives.
my mare and I have been getting on great now! I’ve taken a softer tone with her now, what a difference she has been since I haven’t been trying to make her into my Quarter Horse. I thank God every day for the second chance I am having with her. her and I have been going on spiritual trail rides together, and I have been riding her bare back, which let me tell you is pretty spiritual. being one on one with the beautiful animal He created and me, the child that He fearfully and wonderfully made.
I hope that you guys can join me, I will be posting stuff like how my horse was, and what changes I’ve seen in her, as well as my walk with Jesus and what I feel Him putting on me throughout my days here on earth.
