Excerpt: The Pursuit of God, The Human Thirst for the Divine, A.W. Tozer

O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need of further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, The Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, that so I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, "Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away." Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wondered so long. In Jesus' name. Amen

A Horse is a Horse, Of Course!

Yesterday Kara had horse riding lessons, so I went along to watch.  It was sunny, but very breezy and cold!  Jessica and I wrapped up in a blanket while we sat on the sidelines watching!

Kara getting Pedro from the corral.

Headed to the barn.

Manicure.

Catching a few winks during Kara's manicure.

Yawning, LOL!

Warming in the sunshine

Mounted and ready to go through the obstacle course to warm Pedro up.


The obstacle course includes things for the horse to experience that are not found in their normal surrounds to get them used to unusual items.  You can't see her, but Kara is there on Pedro's back.

Freezing our buns off on the sidelines.

Kara looks like she is day dreaming here.

That's a happy face after a canter, which is her favorite!

Last maneuver of the day because Kara was getting tired.
We rushed home to change for church and left to grab some Chick-fil-A before hand.
Here's a video taken during the lessons.  You can really hear the wind whipping around the camera.
