God and His bridle
Posted in Spiritual Life
|
I am sitting by my window watching Annie and Melody work on bridleing Lilly our horse. Annie is sure of what she is doing and Melody flits around wanting to partake in all the fun. Lilly is feeling frisky this afternooon and is not at all compliant with the plans. I am watching because it reminds me of my life. How many times has God brought the bridle to me, knowing that His plans are best and I just need to relax and submit to Him? How many times have I meandered away not interested in what He wants to do with me, or throwing my head away from His hands in the "stiff-necked rebellion" so often mentioned in the Old Testament. My daughters love their horse, they have only good plans for her. God loves me and only has what is good in His plans for me. How beautiful today to see this truth acted out before my eyes. |
