Muckboots n' Aprons: Drink Water From Your Own Cistern...

Ever Lived Someplace You Didn't Like?

"Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have sent into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon. Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat their produce. Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not seek decrease. But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the LORD on it's behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare."
Jeremiah 29: 4-7

Aren't we exiles on the earth? Maybe we are exiles in our daily life, the physical, mental, or spiritual place we are living presently...

Drink Water From Your Own Cistern...

Kito came up to the back deck for a sip of refreshing water...from the dog's water bowl! They were not happy. This horse is such a character- pure enjoyment and not-quite-so-free entertainment.

Owning horses was a life-long dream. The Lord has been so gracious to allow me to have them.

I'm also glad I get to share them with others sometimes. I remember when I didn't have them and it was so thrilling to me when others shared...or even when I got to see someone riding by!

Now, I have them every day and the ability to look out any window of my house with the opportunity of seeing them. Thank You as well, Lord, for a 360' view!
