tired of the round pen

a couple of years ago we went to see a Horse Whisperer....
find myself thinking on the experience.....

this guy in a big round pen with a horse, a big unbroken horse
the horse has a rope loosely around his neck and he's running..round and round and round
the guy just loosely holds the rope and lets him run.....

after a time he holds out a halter and waits...waits for the horse to head down, step into the halter if he won't, he simply allows him to run more........and the horse does, for hours it seems with nothing from the man in the middle but patience.....the man waits softly talking to the horse....

finally the horse approaches the halter and the man tells us in the audience that now the horse will know what he was made for....

my yoke is easy and the burden is light.....


i will today see it and choose to step into it......Papa help me
i know you are thirsty, the water is free, but i should warn you it costs everything....
