Good,and Bad news

Hello, I am back after a long busy month or two of just plain catching up!!!

 Horseback riding is what I am going to do first. I have some bad news and good.
Which one do you want first? I guess I will do bad first and good last. The bad news is that Tequila is lame. She has a swollen leg that is really hurting her and so I have not been riding her for about 3 whole weeks. This is what happened when we found out that she had a swollen leg. I was warming up Tequila and started trotting and she was limping so I pulled her into a walk and she stopped limping. My coach said to trot her in a small circle. I did so and I could hardly stay on her for her limping. It was terrible. My coach said to get off and get Ellie Mae because Tequila was not in well enough condition to get ridden.

 The good news is that I passed a dressage test on Ellie Mae. It was quite simple but since Ellie is so wiggly I had to work super hard. The test is seeing whether I can remember where the letters in the ring are, follow a preset course, keep Ellie Mae going very straight, do transitions like walk to trot to canter, do circles properly, and halt quickly. It is like a small choreographed dance for the horse. I did well according to my teacher. I think I did well as well.

 This year I am doing a Home school co-op. It so far is a lot of fun. I have Art, Science, and History. In Science and History I had to do this project. I just finished my two and gave them to my teacher. I did my science one about the sense of touch and I did my History on Jeffery Amherst. It was a lot of fun!! On the last week of the co-op I have to do a presentation on my projects.

Unique 2

Everyone is put in their year for a reason. This talk was based on Esther, who was put in her time for a purpose. That purpose was to save all the Jews. 1. We are all placed in a Unique Time and Place. - For a purpose that only God knows. 2. I am expected to live with integrity.     - Chapters 1-2 - You may be thrown into the deep end but God is with you always. Try your hardest. Do the big and small thing for God. 3. I must stand only for what is right, with wisdom.      - Chapters 3-4 - Take risks for Jesus. Do something in person for Him. Don't rely on social media to do the taking for you. 4. I must leverage my position and power to further the kingdom.      - Chapters 5-10 - Use everything that has been given to you and make God's kingdom bigger. Why was I born here and now?? Am I living my life in a way that can be used by God?? Do I stand for Him in the little ways??

When you become a Christian you become part of the body. The Christian body also known as the church. Everyone in this body has his or hers unique part to play. 1 Corinthians 12 explains all this so lets go and dive in. 1. We are all uniquely gifted- :11 As God wills He gives us a different gift individually. There are these "gifts" called spiritual gifts. They are given to you by the Holy Sprit. For the most part every Christian will have one because there are so many . I personally have the gift of giving. I love to give and help people but for others it will be different. The neat thing is that God gives them to us because he knows us so well. 2. God put the Body together- :18 Each of us have a part. Like it is the actual human body a foot walks a hand holds a eye sees and so on. 3. All Body parts are needed- :22 Again it is the same as a human body. If you don't have a foot then it doesn't work very well. Also you are never the same if you don't hav...

Welcome to a four blog series. They were so good that I wanted to share them with everyone here. Please stay tuned for the three more that I am going to post. It will all be in one week. PSALM 139:1-6  God knows us.  God knows things about you that you don't know about you. He knows you're future, the number of hairs on your body and more! PSALM 139:7-12 He is always with us He is the friend who won't leave you alone. He's always around, constantly listening and always ready to give you a hug. There is nothing you can do to get away from Him. PSALM 139:13-16 He created us God loves us because He created us. He knit us together. He is proud of the creation that He made. You know when a small child drew something and is eager to show someone and the person doesn't seem to care as much as the child. That only makes sense because the child made it. This creation is part of the child. God created us in the same way. PSALM 139:17-18 He thinks about us He th...
