A request...

I'm going to keep this short and sweet. I wasnt going to blog at all about this just yet except that we're in need of the prayers and positive energy I know you all will so willingly provide.

My sweet horse got cast in his stall on Friday afternoon. He is injured and tomorrow is seeing a specialist so we can try to pin down what exactly is causing his pain. There are a myriad of possible things.

I feel like this is really unfair...that's it, I said it. But I know God cares for me and by that knowledge, also cares for Pongo. God has already kept Pongo safe from all sorts of complications and allowed him to improve slightly each day, for which I am grateful.

I trust that he has the power to heal Pongo, I trust he will use this situation to continue to mold me. I trust he will use my response to this situation to encourage others. I wont lie, I'm doing a little "faith it 'til you make it" but doing this WITH him will be a heck of a lot easier than trying to do this without him. I can rest in his promises, promises a very lovely and wise friend of mine so kindly reminded me are mine to bank on...

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus" Phil 4:6-7


"When you pass through the waters, I will be with you. And when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze" Isaiah 43:2

So tonight before you go to sleep or if you're reading this in the morning, please say a little prayer or think a nice thought for our spotted boy that he'll be ok.

With Love~

Nicku & Pongo

“For the Lord is a sun and shield; the Lord will give grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly.” (Psalm 84:11)

  1. Thanks for letting us know - I'm very sorry to hear that - with luck it's just some muscle pulls and strains that can be remedied by rest, massage and/or chiro. Thinking of you both.

  10. Awe that is awful news to hear.... Praying for you and that precious horse of yours. It is never easy when they are in pain and you can't find the reason for it. Thankfully their Creator knows.... rest in that fact and know that He does care about all of His creation.
