AMAZING HORSES

Just up the road from my home is a field, with two horses in it.

>From a distance, each horse looks like any other horse. But if you
stop
your car, or are walking by, you 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.

If you stand nearby and listen, you will hear the sound of a bell.
Looking
around for the source of the sound, you will see that it comes from the
smaller horse in the field. Attached to the horse's halter is a small
bell. It lets the blind friend know where the other horse is, so he can
follow.

As you stand and watch these two friends, you'll see that the horse
with
the bell is always checking on the blind horse, and that the blind
horse
will listen for the bell and then slowly walk to where the other horse
is,
trusting that he will not be led astray.

When the horse with the bell returns to the shelter of the barn each
evening, it stops occasionally and looks back, making sure that the
blind
friend isn't too far behind to hear the bell.

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 the little ringing
bell
of those who God places in our lives.

Other times we are the guide horse, helping others to find their
way....

Good friends are like that... you may not always see them, but you know
they are always there.

Please listen for my bell and I'll listen for yours.

And remember... be kinder than necessary- everyone you meet is fighting
some kind of battle.

Live simply,
Love generously,
Care deeply,
Speak kindly....
Leave the rest to God
