His name was Dapple - Gray.
I lent him to a lady
To ride a mile away.
She whipped him,
She slashed him,
She rode him
Through the mire;
I would not lend
My pony now
For all the
Lady's hire.

Forgiveness,
And dressed my
Pony's wounds;
Then came to me
Another horse
Delivered from her
Real soon.
She made atonement
For her deed,
As quick as she could
To me;
For the Lord was
With her then
As His guidance was
You see.

Note: These studies began 30 years ago, and at the turn of the century a man said he would put them on the internet for me. From New Years Eve it took him 6 months to design a site with 150 studies. They were there for 5 years, and I had a copy made because I could not access the site to add to it. Meanwhile, as I read the Bible over and over, God was giving me more studies. In His timing a woman was raised up who "resurrected" the site for me in 7 weeks. She was brilliant, and when I offered to pay her she said, "Absolutely not! You are doing the Lord's work!" She did the site, put my first book (Mother Goose Rhymes for Biblical Times) on there as a free download, and made a Journey to Israel with 129 potos. When I asked for a Sketch Gallery she decided to charge me, "going forward." The price was set at $320.00 but I told her I would overshoot. When I picked up the sketches I gave her a check for $500.00 "No questions asked." I told her she was worth a lot more. I suggested she buy something special for herself, and she said, "Oh, no. This is going into an account to give away." I told her I was relieved when she charged me as 4 people had dropped this in my lap, and I asked if she ws going to stay with me long enough to teach me how to put a study on it. She said she would. She made a template to help me when the time came. You see, this woman did not need the money. She needed to be validated. Then was raised up another man to come along side to do the things I needed done, and try to help me learn. I gladly pay him $20.00 an hour for his expertise. It's not an easy task for him, but he is a man with a big heart, and so he patiently perseveres with me. The other day he came over to help me learn how to make a combined .pdf for books, and to enter sketches and photos into the studies. He did most of them while he was here and I took notes. Right after he left I found another page with sketches to enter, and try as I might, notes and all, I could not get them to appear in the studies. It was then that I realized the value of this person to me, and God laid this study on my heart. I feel bad that he has to take time out of his busy life to come help me so many times because these are things I am not skilled in. Note: Jesus, in His time, assured men of their value to His Father. Note: The greatest value is that of Christ on the cross to save all of mankind. We as people get all pompous telling those we meet what skills we have. This sometimes only serves the purpose of giving others an opportunity to use us. But I believe the reason we do that can stem from being misunderstood and rejected. We have a need to feel valued and that can only be truly fulfilled through the work of Jesus Christ on the cross. When we can see ourselves, and each other from the Light of God's perspective we find our true value. That is why I always try to pay a person their wages for helping me do something I do not have the skills to do. Yes, you are valued. God sent His Son to die for you.
