FOR WHOM THE
BELL TOLLS - The two horses
Just near my house there
is a field, with two horses in it. From a distance, each horse looks like the
other. But if you stop and watch you will find something amazing. One of the
horse is blind. His owner has chosen not to put it down. If you stand a little
longer, you will hear the sound of a bell, ringing. It is coming from the other
horse in the field. Attached to the horse's halter, is a small bell. It lets
the blind friend know where the other horse is, so he can follow. As you stand
and watch the two friends. you will find the horse with the bell is always
checking on the blind horse and that the blind horse will listen for the bell
and slowly walk to where the other horse is, trusting he will not go astray.
Like the owner of the two horses, GOD does not throw us away just because we
are imperfect or problematic. He watches over us and brings others into our
lives to help us when we are in need. Sometimes we are the blind horse being
guided by the ringing bell of those who GOD places in our lives. Other times we
are the guide horse, helping others to find their way.
Good friends are like
that. You may not always see them, but you know they are always there.
Have you ever been a 'guide horse' to others? If yes, then cherish those memories for they mean you have lived those moments right! Work on increasing those moments in your lives....
Have you been the blind horse guided by some guide horse or horses in your life? If yes, note them down, kneel down and praise the God for those are the blessings sent from above.......
