Go Into All the World

 


Many of you know I love to ride horses.  It is a fun way to learn a new skill and do something normal.  Through the years I have had many trainers.  Some have been good, and others not so impressive.  I have been burdened to share the love of Jesus with them. Many are troubled people who struggle with life.  Sometimes I have given them CDs of our Gospel Choir.  Sometimes I have given other tokens of appreciation, but as far as I know only one has trusted Jesus as a result. 

 

Currently, I have two trainers who trade off.  One is very young, and very lonely.  I try to show God’s love to him.  He is not sure what to do with me, but he is willing to learn.  My other trainer has been there quite a while.  He is a bit lazy at times, and I have not always enjoyed having him, but God challenged me to love him and share the love of Jesus with him even though he is not my favorite.  So, I began to do that.  After many months he shared that he had met another family with an autistic child.  He told them they should try bringing their child for horse riding lessons.  He told us he had shared about me.  He told them not to worry, because he knew how to teach autistic kids.

I see more confidence and creativity in his teaching.  God is using me to impact his life.  It is my prayer that he finds Jesus and becomes a new man.  Only God can do that.  God will use me as part of this if I am willing to submit.  Lord, here I am.  Use me!
