Sometimes the house of the future is better built lighter and larger than all the houses of the past so that the image of the dream house is opposed to that of the childhood home. Late in life with indomitable courage we continue to say that we are going to do what we have not yet done we are going to build a house. This dream house may be merely a dream of ownership the embodiment of everything that is considered convenient comfortable healthy sound desirable by other people.

I want to tell you a growing conviction with me and that is that as we obey the leadings of the Spirit of God we enable God to answer the prayers of other people. I mean that our lives my life is the answer to someones prayer prayed perhaps centuries ago.It is more and more impossible to me to have programmes and plans because God alone has the plan and our plans are only apt to hinder Him and make it necessary for Him to break them up. I have the unspeakable knowledge that my life is the answer to prayers and that God is blessing me and making me a blessing entirely of His sovereign grace and nothing to do with my merits saving as I am bold enough to trust His leading and not the dictates of my own wisdom and common sense.

To be content horse people need only a horse or lacking that someone else who loves horses with whom they can talk. It was always that way with my grandfather. He took me places just so we could see horses be near them. We went to the circus and the rodeo at Madison Square Garden. We watched parades down Fifth Avenue. Finding a horse real or imagined was like finding a dab of magic potion that enlivened us both. Sometimes Id tell my grandfather about all the horses in my eleborate dreams. Hed lean over smile and assure me that one day Id have one for real. And if my grandfather my Opa told me something was going to come true it always did.
