God's been asking me lately

What am I willing to give up for Him?

I was reading Genesis 22 where Abraham is asked to sacrifice Isaac on the mountain when God asked me, "Would you do the same?"

That got me thinking. Am I really willing to give up anything for God? My wish to say "yes" isn't necessarily true about anything. What if He asked me to give up my family? My comforts? What if He asked me to give up horses? It's definitely thought-provoking. I want to say "yes", but He challenged me lately.



He asked me to give up Angel for Him.



He asked me if I would be willing to give up horses at all. He asked me if He was most important. If He mattered more to me than anything else in the world.

And you know what?

I don't want to say "yes" to that.

But I'm going to anyway. I'm going to make God most important in my life. He matters more to me than anything.

Christmas snow

Well, I think we're gonna have a white Christmas. They're predicting snow for Christmas Eve and Christmas day. But even if that doesn't come, we've got about 6-10 inches(give or take a few) right now and another 14-22 inches tonight and tomorrow. We'll see if we actually get that much. =P Maybe I should try that snow horse again...

6 days, 1 hour, 15 minutes until Christmas Eve. =) =) =)
