Face your fears - tarp - Rain the Spotted Saddle Horse - 23 Oct 2023

Working some more on facing your fears with Rain the Spotted Saddle Horse. This time using a small tarp. Note that I am NOT trying to scare her with the tarp but rather I am trying to assure her that the tarp will not eat her and thus she can tolerate it touching her and moving around and over her. You are not trying to scare the horse. You are trying to help the horse choose to control itself when it thinks something is scary.

Training horses always involves some risk of injury (or even death) to the horse, the trainer, any spectators, equipment used, etc. - this risk is totally your own as you will be making your own judgements on what to do. As with any suggestions on any subject you must weigh them out for yourself and proceed accordingly - at your own risk.

Remember to intentionally, on purpose, learn of God each day by prayerfully reading, studying, and pondering upon God's word each day. Talk to God in prayer as your Heavenly Father who would like for you to be His friend. Find out what He would like you to do for Him as His friend and go and do it for Him as His friend. Yes very intentionally, very much on purpose, become the friend of God. And have a blessed day!!
