What is your horse?

We either look to God for strength or... anything else.

Psalm 33:16,17 rocks with truth:

"No king is saved by the size of his army; no warrior escapes by his great strength. A horse is a vain hope for deliverance, despite all its great strength, it cannot save."

I keep going back to Proverbs 3:5 - if we are trusting God with all our hearts, we won't trust in ourselves - which includes horses, cars, bank accounts, brains, past triumphs, people we love, talent, our kids, etc. etc. God has a wonderful way of allowing the proverbial rug to be pulled out from under us to show what we are really riding on - God or a silly horse. How will you saddle up today?

Such a good word today, my dear friend. "Silly horses" come in a variety of disguises, don't they? Love you.
