In the ranch blog, I pointed out that right now I am living the dream I had as a little girl. I used to read horse stories, play "Oregon Trail", play horses, think horses, dream horses. The other day, I finally realized, I am living with horses.
As I grew up, I put the dream away because after all, it was impossible. It was "above and beyond all that I could ask or think". If a fairy had come down and given me a wish, I would have wished for what I have now (and a little bit more money--but that's another story).
This is such an example of how the Lord Yeshuah brings us to the most unexpected places and gives us the desires of our hearts. By the time I recieved Messiah at age fourteen, I had put the "horse dream" away. Little did I know that it resided, carefully kept, in the plans of my Lord.
The trick is, I almost missed it. I almost treated this fulfillment of my dream as though it were another humdrum part of life, rather than the wish fulfillment it really is. I was treating this dream, my dream, as though it meant no more than when I worked at the Sears warehouse in Dallas (the true definition of boring).
Thankfully though, I didn't miss it. I finally realized the other day while mucking a stall, that this was it! This is my dream! It is really happening! To me! Thank G-d!
Is life perfect? No! It is the real revelation of a little girl's wish. Now the little girl is going to enjoy it. Eeeeh Hawww!
