Horses are amazing creatures. They are revered for their strength, their beauty, and their enduring spirit. They have been used for war, for work, for leisure and even for therapy. Have you ever wondered where these beautiful animals would go if they had no fences?
Where would you go if you had no fence, no barriers, nothing holding you back? You are created with the strength and beauty of Christ. You have been given a truly enduring spirit. You also have intelligence and love.
Now the question becomes, what is holding you back? Why are you not going out and loving? Why are you not using the gifts God gave you?
For me it’s fear, it’s doubt, it’s uncertainty. I often doubt my purpose in this life. I know that God has given everyone gifts to use to glorify him here on Earth. Some days I feel like maybe I wasn’t in line when he was handing out gifts.
There are several places in the Bible that talks about spiritual gifts, where we are told of all of the different gifts we could’ve been given. I am smart enough to know that a lot of these gifts are not ones that I possess. In Romans 12:7 it says about gifts “if it’s serving, serve; if it’s teaching, then teach”. I can take joy in knowing that if I can do nothing else I can serve.
When you find your gift use it, often, every chance you get. No matter what it is share it. We are given gifts to use to glorify God who gave them to us. When using your gift do it with a smile, knowing that people are seeing Jesus through you, you sometimes are their only connection.
I love you
