It appears that Hershey, our Appaloosa Paint "teenager" (age 3 really) has learned a new trick. The other night while my husband was cleaning out his stall with my son, he(Hershey) decided that he wanted out of the roundpen that he was in. My husband kept hearing this "clink" and then a few minutes later another "clink". Finally, my husband caught Hershey pulling the pins out of the roundpen!!! He gave my husband that sly, "who me?" look. We never leave him unattended in the pen, but can you imagine the fun he'd have if we did? ;-)
Aren't we like that in life too? The Lord puts us in a "pen" or "area" or "season" of our life and we spend most of our time trying to get out of it. "Just let us get through the diaper stage, get through the learning to read stage, the starting into the young adult years, and on and on". We, like Hershey, don't tend to want to stay "put" in our spot often thinking that there has to be something better "over there". Contentment....it's something to think about.
Walking in Faith,
