105 days until showtime!

    The last few days, 

        The mustangs have been lightly worked in
a small pen they are getting more settled in we catch them every day and work at
helping to build their confidence one of them is still to troubled to allow us
to put the saddle onto his back we have put a saddle blanket and some feed sacks
and have desensitized him with a lariat. I think he’s close to coming through to
get the saddle on. The two that have been allowing us to saddle them will be
ridden this week. Today this morning Braydon and I went out early and worked 3
horses and then Cindy called us in for breakfast after we ate we read a
devotional called Jesus Calling by Sarah Young. She writes in the devotional as
if Jesus is talking directly to you. This morning’s read was interesting because
it said “The peace that I give you transcends your intellect. When most of your
mental energy goes into efforts to figure things out, you are unable to receive
this glorious gift. I look into your mind and see thoughts spinning round and
round: going nowhere going nowhere, accomplishing nothing. All the while, My
Peace hovers over you, searching for a place to land. Be still in my presence,
inviting Me to control your thoughts. Let My Light soak into your mind and
heart, until you are aglow with My very Being. This is the most effective way to
receive My Peace.” This was played out with the three horses this morning one of
them especially was distracted his thoughts were on escaping the pressure he was
feeling. He was trying to figure out what to do about his circumstance of being
saddle and confined in the barn and the traffic of the other horses around him
and our presence in there with him. He was in an emotional frenzy for a time.
Braydon and I just stood in the middle of the pen and watched 
as he tried several avenues to find relief while he was in this state of
mind it was impossible for him to take direction from us, but when he had
exhausted all of his options he decided to stop and focus his full attention on
us. At which time we allowed him to rest it was in this state of rest with his
attention focused onto us that he could now receive direction from us with a
willing attitude and with purpose given to him by us he found peace.
