MY HORSE
God is the great caregiver of each of us. Psalm 23 is a word picture of David’s view of God in his life: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” Can you see God as the shepherd working in your life? Do you see His hand of provision?
President Woodrow Wilson was President of the United States when World War I was being fought. He was the son of a Unitarian minister. He told the story that his elderly father one day was in his carriage, being pulled by a beautiful horse. As he rode down the street, a member of his congregation spotted him and shouted, “Pastor, that horse looks a might bit better than you do.” The elder Wilson replied, “True indeed – I take care of my horse, my congregation takes care of me.”
If we have God’s blessings in our life, perhaps we should look and act like it. If we complain about things that don’t go our way, what kind of message are we sending God about our faith in Him. I will choose to rejoice today in whatever comes my way.
