CJ's Equine Training & Massage

When the task or issue feels small, it is so easy to think that it’s not important enough to bring to God. I have thought to myself, “There are people that have way bigger issues than the one I’m dealing with. I don’t need to bring this issue to God.” To think to myself. “I got this one. I don’t need divine intervention on this.” But that’s not humbleness. That is pride. It becomes a slippery slope to choose to not pray about one little thing like working on updating your resume then it becomes bigger things like providing more income to pay a surprise medical bill. And eventually when I realize that there is an issue that is bigger than I can control I still don’t pray about it because I feel ashamed that I couldn’t do it myself. God doesn’t want that. He wants to talk with me about every single little thing that is going on at every minute of every day. He is waiting for me to pick up the phone to talk to him be cause he LOVES hearing from me. And He wants to take care of even the smallest problem.
“And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.”
‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭6‬:‭18‬ ‭NIV‬‬

“Believe = Be Alive” direct quote from Lyssa Scott | permanently stoked ✝️
This phrase made something click in me.
I have gotten so caught up in life lately that I have forgotten what makes me feel the most alive. Thinking about it, it’s not one specific thing like riding my horse or going on epic adventures with my family. It’s being in the moment, fully present, in the here and now. I have been so forward thinking that I started to miss what was right in front of me.
It’s time to get back to seeing all the colors of the trail on my ride instead of thinking about what time I need to be back. To sitting and having a conversation with my family about anything and everything instead of rushing to the next task.
Believing in the life that God has provided. Living the life I was created for.

“For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.”
‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭1‬:‭7‬ ‭NIV‬‬

“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” 2 Corinthians 12:9
