And what a gift that is!
Honesty. Understanding. If you’ve been around horses, you may have noticed that they pick up on what you’re “saying” without you saying a word. You may have felt calmer just being with them.

If you love horses and have them in your life, you also need this video ❤️
Dr Karen has been a life changing mentor and teacher for me and my horses for hmmm 100 years now! Well, maybe more like 15. She is the absolute best.

He’s such a sweet and smart one. He follows me around and helps me feed the horses, toss out hay, and ponder the stars.

“Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.” Hebrews 13:2

I’ve come to believe some angels arrive with hooves, paws, whiskers, and feathers.

Cowboy, a black and white cat who just appeared one day, continues to show up exactly when someone needs company.

Cloud is a Mustang who ended up at an Oklahoma auction, where her future looked grim. Now she lives here, and she notices everything and carries with her a quiet and gentle kindness.

Peanut is another kitty who zoomed into my life out of nowhere as a kitten and then stayed — traveling from SC to the NC mountains where she is now Queen of the porch.

Jacob is a Great Pyrenees who keeps watch over all of us.

And then there’s Howdy Stranger, another kitty. For five years he’s popped up every other day or so, wanting love but keeping his fierce independence. He’s taught me that welcome doesn’t have to mean holding on tightly. His life is fully free.

Horace is a black cat who literally just walked in the door 10 years ago and made himself at home. He is the meekest but most confident cat I’ve ever met.

Nate, my horse and companion for the last 18 years, I can’t even begin to tell you about him in a sentence or two.

There are so many more!

Who are the angels in disguise in your life? Tell me about them below.

The horses always know when I walk out to the pasture carrying something heavy. Not a bucket of grain! :) Something inside myself that’s weighing me down. They wait. They don’t push. They are great “holders of space” for what is. 🐴

I thought how great it might be to have this kind of support outside the pasture. ❤️

So, I built a web application called “Held & Seen” to be a small daily place to set things down. 🫶🫶 Not quite like being with a listening presence like a horse! But it’s a guided reflection tool that helps you listen for what God might be saying to you through your daily life.

And, you can try it free for 3 days and see how it works for you! After that, it’s $10 a month.

If you’re new here, welcome. This is Mountain Spring Farm, a sacred spot tucked in the Appalachians outside Burnsville, North Carolina. It’s home to bubbling creeks, peaceful forest spaces, our horses, a lot of quiet, and the work I love most: helping women slow down long enough to hear what’s true in their souls. Over the next few weeks I’ll share what happens here and a few ways to join us. And if you’ve been here a while, thank you for walking alongside us. Say hi below!
