I wonder what it would be like to run with the horses.

I imagine it would be like the sound of thunder with the beat of hoofs pounding on the ground, wind whistling through their manes. I imagine to run with the horses would feel like unleashing yourself to the unknown, terrifying, courageous yet intensely liberating. I imagine to run with the horse to look like a life poured out to the danger and risk of a challenge, terrific, brazen and amazingly beautiful.

The very thought of this sends shivers down my spine. To be able to run free in liberation, bold and beautiful. Living a life that engages the very essence in you that God has created you for. And when you live that very life that exercises your very essence of your being, then that is the most beautiful thing in the world.

When we live our lives the way we are called, to be the very person that you are – with everything inside you that makes you, you – then that is an amazing act of worship.

I believe that this is the life that God had called each one of us to. A life that sounds, feels and looks like; running with the horses. It is a life poured out to His calling for your life, whatever that may look like for you. If you are called to be a mother, a teacher, a student, a chef, a business person, a sister, a brother, a husband or a wife, where ever you find yourself, and whatever your role or your job is, it is to be the best <insert noun> you can be.

This is the higher calling and the journey that God has each of us on.

This is a vision that energises me. It gives life and it flows out.  It motivates into movement, into action. It pushes aside complacency and encourages perspective. It sets a dream in my heart that allows me to hope, to aspire and to one day become someone who is living a life poured out. And that as I keep envisioning this, each day I will be moving closer to a life that sounds, feels and looks like she is running with the horses.
