God’s Faithfulness
Our baby girl Taya was having a very difficult day. She was so homesick. She missed her grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends who were all back in Edmonton. I felt her pain. My heart was crying with her yet I had to put up a brave front in order to cheer her up. I’m afraid I wasn’t successful. Her Daddy asked what would be the one thing that could happen on this day to cheer her up. Her response was to ride a horse. Her Daddy’s response was to pray about it. In all honesty my response was “No Way!” Needless to say Taya’s Mommy was now having a difficult day too.
Doubt began to set in my heart.
In an attempt to turn around this day, we all ventured out into our new neighborhood. We checked out a nature walk nearby our home. We walked past different paddocks. The kids were excited to see cows, pigs and sheep. I was thrilled about the fact that we were in such a secluded environment whilst still in the city limits.
Suddenly my peaceful thoughts were interrupted by shrill squeals of excitement. Taya had spotted a couple of horses with riders on them. She ran to their paddock and looked on with longing admiration. One of the girls approached us and introductions were made. The friendly young woman couldn’t help but notice Taya’s interest and offered to take Taya for a ride upon the beautiful horse. Once they returned, Taya’s sense of exhilaration was further enhanced by the mention that she is a natural on horses. While we chatted with our new acquaintances, Taya poured out loving delight upon the friendly animal. It warmed my heart to see my daughter show such affection toward this creature.
Wow what an amazing day it turned out to be. As we walked back home we all sang with joy in our hearts.What an awesome, loving, faithful God we serve. There is nothing but goodness in Him. He thrilled us that day with what he did for us during our nature walk!
