I am looking for an older shetland pony to be a companion for an older mare. I have over fifty years of experience taking care of horses; and find horses are much happier with buddy. Age isn't a problem; this pony will strictly be a buddy for my old mare. Doesn't even need to be broke to ride, since they will never be ridden.

I think it is only fair that if someone is going to hate you; that you know why that is. As Christians today we receive a lot of hate from people who do not believe the way we do. Before you agree to quickly; think about that statement! Hate doesn't just come from non-believers, many times it comes from within the religious world who claim to know Jesus. Jesus said, they will hate you because they first hated me. Why did they hate Jesus? Was it because he healed the sick? Maybe because He turned water into wine? It must have been the miracles He performed. I know because He hung out with sinners. Oh, this was the reasons that the church leaders gave; but the truth is simple Jesus brought light into a dark world. The Bible says, the people preferred the darkness. So the conclusion must be; if the world does not hate you; maybe we aren't putting off enough light. Why does darkness hate the light so much? When the break of dawn comes and the light of the sun breaks through, darkness must flee. So, if you feel rejected by the world because you bring light into it's darkness; rejoice you are doing what you were created for. It is sorry to say there are a lot of bright lights out there; but they are hidden under a basket concerned that they might offend someone. Jesus said, I did not come to bring peace but division even in one's own house. Wait a minute isn't Jesus referred to as the prince of peace? Yes, but the Bible also says about Jesus; peace I give you not as the world gives but my peace. The peace of Jesus is for everyone; but most will not receive it nor want it. So, be the light you were designed to be and look for your peace within Jesus; because the world certainly will not give it to you.

When John was baptizing people in the river Jordan for the remission of sins. The crowd asked what shall we do? To each the command was the same; stop doing the things that are sinful in the eyes of God. Confession is just first step, one must follow it by changing of one's ways.
