Perhaps The Life Lesson Is Not For Me

Maybe I Am The Lamb?

Seems to me that so many times things happen out of my control, lessons that well I just do not think I need a lesson in as well I have learned this lesson.  I  find myself thinking,  GOD what are you trying to teach me?  Lately I feel as if GOD is not trying to teach me the lesson he is using me to teach others.

What do you think about life lessons?

GOD bless you and your family two and four-legged!

Waiting On GOD

Friends of the Donkey Whisperer Farm,

The last couple of weeks have been beautiful weather here in the Pacific Northwest and I have found myself dreaming of the ocean just one more time.  The cold from the ocean and damp is not fun for me anymore as the long screws in my pelvis do not like the damp and cold but still my soul and body ache to smell the beach so here is one of my photos.  I take photos of things I can later write and dwell in I pray my essence has in some way touched your mind, body and soul to bring you to your knees for Jesus.

Attempting to live in this fast paced world without Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior well this would be impossible for me, you see for whatever reasons I have had many horrific things happen in my life that could have left me cursing Jesus and living another life.  Once I accepted Jesus into my life as my Lord and Savior he came to live inside my human body and help me make good decisions.

When I leave this crippled body and move to heaven I will ask GOD why so many tears, why was my life so difficult and painful?  But for now I am content to let my life unfold like a flower does in the spring as GOD takes care of his children he is the Alfa and Omega the beginning and end of all things.

I am not comfortable talking about the most difficult of things I have faced in my life as well I believe GOD gave us two eyes to look ahead not look back.

This I know for sure; Satin is a liar and he puts this little thing in our minds that says What are you going to do? Hurry time is running out make a choice of what you are going to do!  

GOD says “WAIT ON ME I AM WORKING ON THIS TO GIVE YOU FAVOR” the key is to wait on GOD, pray, and wait for the peace only Jesus Christ can give us humans.

Waiting on GOD is always the most difficult thing to do but if we wait, stand tall in our faith in Jesus Christ GOD will not only show up he will show off.  The bible states GOD will serve our blessings up in front of our enemies another words GOD loves to show what only GOD can do!

GOD is looking for people who will slow down in life sit down for a moment and talk to GOD like a friend would talk to a friend.

How to pray to GOD?

GOD is not looking for anything complicated he just wants us to say “LORD Jesus Christ come into my life I make you my Lord and Savior, forgive me of my sins for I repent of all of them.  Please don’t think you are the only person to sin each one of is a sinner.  Call our 700 Club Prayer Center 1-800-823-6053 I promise these people will help you as they have helped me so very many times.

If you can find a good bible based church that believes Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins than go to church as I promise you will feel better.  If you can’t find a good church listen to preachers on t.v. or the internet that inspire you to believe in Jesus Christ.

Prayers for Waiting On GOD In His Timing Not Ours

Guide me in Your truth and faithfulness and teach me, for You are the GOD of my salvation; for You

You only and altogether do I wait Expectantly All Day Long.  Pslam 25:5

I trusted in, relied on, and was confident in You, O Lord; I said, You are my GOD.

My times are in your hands.  Pslam 31:14-15

My eyes wait for You looking, watching and expecting and You give me

food in due season.

 You open your hand and satisfy me with favor. Pslam 145: 15-16

If it seems slow, do not despair, for these

things will surely come to pass.

Just be patient!

They will not be over due a single day!  HABAKKUK 2:3 (tlb)

I highly suggest picking up Joyce Meyers little purple pocket-book The Secret Power of Speaking GOD’s Word. All the prayers came from this book.  One more thing I would like to share pray to GOD in Jesus Christ name as we only serve one GOD and this is precious Jesus Christ.

GOD bless you and your family two and four-legged! Melody

Plastic Slow Feeder, Diet, Test our Hay, Exercise To Help In The Prevention Of Colic and More

Welcome,

Here on the Donkey Whisperer Farm we have one Mammoth donkey, one Mini Donkey and One horse. Donkeys are wood eaters and well horses who live in a dry paddock can become wood eaters. Our equine live on a dry paddock and the donkeys have a paradise paddock full of stumps to chew on for about an hour a day in the nice weather.  My horse has a pasture she can graze on about an hour a day and that’s it as she is not being ridden and not burning any calories.  Last year finally I found the Valley Vet Plastic Slow feeder Slow Feeder Plastic I purchased one and then a week later the second one.

Why Do I Love This Slow Feeder?

Horses, Donkeys and mules were built by GOD in Jesus Christ name to graze all day a little never starving for hours at a time and then gorging their tummy is just not big enough to hold all that hay at once.  The slow feeder prevents colic, keeps our equine calm and has stopped cribbing 100% on the wood barn.  I give them the same amount of hay I was breaking into three and four small meals now I only have to feed twice a day and they are very relaxed.  The plastic box from Valley vet is heavy and strong our Mammoth donkey can pick it up and move it about 3 feet but not destroy it.  Rope slow feeders do not seem safe to me as my horse and donkey love to chew on stuff.

Did you know Donkeys can colic? Select Donkey Colic for more information.

Want more information on slow feeders? select Paradise Paddock 

Resources:

Safer Grass

Soaker for Hay - Takes sugar out of hay

Pete Ramey - Natural Hoof Care

Paradise Paddock - Keep them moving

Test Your Hay Equi Analytical - Grab a few handfuls of hay and send it to the lab before filling up the barn

Slow Feeder Plastic - Slow down the eating

Please share information to help a donkey, horse or mule living near you.

GOD bless you and your family two and four-legged!

Update On My Health, Farm Life, Marriage and Car Insurance Dirty Little Tricks

Friends of the Donkey Whisperer Farm

Thank you for reading my blog, taking a moment to comment and share posts you are a huge part of the change our world needs.  You can be a human angel to a human, animal or our most precious environment this thing we humans call earth.  Our world needs more human angels!

Update on my health:

Spring has officially arrived in the Pacific Northwest we hit 60 degrees yesterday and oh my how this makes me feel better. The surgically inserted (3 long stainless steel screws) in my pelvis do not like cold!  I’m officially back to Physical therapy two days a week working with our third physical therapist.  I am very grateful to my physiatrist as she is the team leader of my rehabilitation.  This new physical therapist has advanced certification in neurological rehabilitation, a gait physical therapist.   “I see lot’s of stroke victims.”  Tears...  The screws in my pelvis along with the eight deformed ribs have left me with a physical disability one I would not wish on my worst enemy.  I continue to pray for GOD to take all this pain away.  Physical Therapy is never easy but I can say if your doctor recommends physical therapy do your home work and find the most educated therapist for the area you need rehabilitation.  Never give up!

2013 is the year my husband and me celebrated our twentieth year living together and our thirteenth year being legally married.  Nothing tests a marriage or any relationship like trauma and I am happy to report our marriage is stronger due to this trauma.  I love my husband so very much he is my best friend! My body turns fifty-three and reacts like I am 90, I still have a way to go on rehabilitation.  We live our life grateful always thanking GOD in Jesus Christ precious name for all of our blessings as things could have been way worse for us.

2013 milestones

My horse Miss Lily turns eight, Rio our Mammoth Donkey turns seven and Rocket Man our mini donkey is a stout nineteen years old.  We continue to pray one day I can trail ride again but for now we are grateful to have been able to keep our little hobby farm. All the animals are a bit to fat again so it’s diet time for all of them including the doggies and one kitty the other kitty has a high metabolism. The photo above is our rescue kitty Jasmine she just has the fat gene going on and her most favorite thing to do is eat and lay around.

Photo of Purcilla (black with her sister Jasmine)

Photo of me riding my horse Miss Lily,  Feb 2010 weeks before the semi truck accident working with Rio our mammoth donkey. Oh how I miss having my health! I have not been able to ride since 2010 nor has anyone rode my horse but that’s ok.

People ask me all the time, Does Your Horse Need To Be Ridden?

No she does not, she is just fine being a horse.  As you know I study Parelli and she is consistently being schooled on the ground with manners and rules for balance and boundaries.

I suffer from numbness in my ankles, feet and horrific rib pain and back pain with spasms, I can tell you the hips are directly connected to the knees and feet lot’s of nerves running down the leg.  The damp/cold causes the stainless steel screws in my pelvis to make my hips ache and back ache and yet I know GOD has me here for a reason. GOD has me in the palm of his hand.

Sadly motor vehicle accidents are extremely difficult to navigate here are some tips on what to do after a car accident.  Surviving a motor vehicle accident involving a semi truck can be deadly, injuries are more intense.  Take a look at Accidents involving semi trucks. 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR A CAR ACCIDENT VICTIM:

If you are riding as a passenger in a motor vehicle and you survive serious injuries you will need to find an experienced insurance attorney, who works in the town your accident was in do not pause.  If you have no health insurance it will be very difficult to get the medical attention you need as most car insurance corporations will not pay the bills until the legal matter is settled this can take three to six years. Insurance agencies are in the business to make money, NOT TO DO THE MORALE RIGHT thing for their client or the passenger never forget this.  

If you think going to trial will be easy think again….  Insurance agencies have created laws that will not authorize you the victim to tell the jury how much insurance the driver of the vehicle who hurt you has. This is all the game insurance corporations play to ensure the victim of the car accident does not receive a fair settlement and the insurance corporation will not have to pay full policy limits.  The cost of hiring an attorney is huge, the cost of not hiring an attorney is even more. Insurance corporations have an open check book for legal lawyers from Washington DC to the State and town you were injured in.

Please share your thoughts, questions and spread the news I have shared with your family and friends.  Knowledge is power and knowledge is light move out of the dark into the light and I pray you will ask Jesus Christ to hold your hand as you begin your journey into the light.  GOD in Jesus Christ name is the only way to navigate this thing called life!

GOD bless you and your family two and four-legged!

No Place Closer To GOD Than In A Garden

Friends of the Donkey Whisperer Farm

Sharing a few precious photos of my garden is indeed a treat as each one of these plants were planted by me as a baby, I prayed over each and every one as I added them to the soil.  GOD is amazing! Gardening in the Pacific Northwest is truly a special treat.

Gardening is truly a rewarding hobby it is the gift that keeps on giving even after we are long gone and moved into heaven.  Enjoy!

GOD bless you and your family two and four-legged!
