The Begining

Prayer.......



Have you ever really asked God for something and put it in his hands? Could you see the Master at work? If someone would have asked me that over a year ago I would have said " Oh sure" and then not really been able to give them an example. Its been a little over a year since God has turned my life around. It is truly amazing to see God work and shape your life. There is a true peace about knowing that God will never let you down.


My life felt like it was falling apart, so like most of us do I called a good friend of mine who helped me tremendously through the toughest part of my life. I had not talked to her in a long time but some how Ami was just the person I knew I needed to call. She would not let me feel sorry for myself or let me just sit around and do nothing about it. I knew Ami would be uplifting me in prayer and encouraging me to look to God for the answers. In the many hours of conversation we had almost daily, she encouraged me to give my problems to God and let him worry about them. That is the hardest thing I have ever done. Can anyone really stop focusing or thinking of the real burdens in life? I can tell you from experience when you hit rock bottom and you tell God the struggle is over I can't do it anymore, my life is yours and you truly stop worrying about the problems, God works Miracles. I had never really experienced that before then and let me tell you its an amazing feeling of peace and tranquility.

Prayer is an amazing thing! I told God I needed something to do in life. I had no education as far as a college degree, I had no money, my family was falling apart and I was looking at giving up all my animals which were my life. I didn't know what I was suppose to do but I knew I could not stay doing what I was and that surely that had to be something more full filling out there. It was a simple prayer of "please God I need to feel like I am doing something useful in life. I want to do what ever it is in your name you just have to show me the way". I left it at that and knew God would let me know when it was HIS time.


God took what little I had to give him and turned everything around. I know am working on a not-for profit ministry. We are working on becoming a 501 (c) 3, it's proving to be challenging but God has timing for everything. We take our miniature horses to nursing homes and hospitals as well as shut-ins, schools and many more. It is so rewarding to give happiness and smiles to those who need a little sunshine in their life. We have 2 rescue minis right now who are in the program. They started off with a rough life but God has used that to create something so great. Stick around for more on the beginning and the stories of our Rescue Angels, Nim and Remy.
