Two Horses

 

[]

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 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 are nearby and listening,

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 her halter is a small bell.

It lets her blind friend know where she is,

so he can follow her.


 
As you stand and watch these two friends,

you'll see 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. When she returns to the

shelter of the barn each evening, she stops

occasionally and looks back, making sure her

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 see.


 
Good friends are like this.

You don't always see them,

but you know they are always there.


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

 

"Be kinder than necessary,

for everyone you meet is

fighting some kind of battle".
 
God Bless~
