🐴 Stable Thoughts - My Weekly Devotional
"Dolly, are you coming?" I call from the barn.
I had bowls filled, hay laid out, and waters filled. I had whistled and called their names. Cutter, Reina, and Dixie had come into the barn for feeding time. I could see Dolly standing out by the fence line, her back to me. I gave the others their grain and waited for Dolly to join us. About 30 seconds passed, and Dolly still had not come into her stall with her usual eager nicker for her meal. And the others were already eating. Slightly worried now, I walked back out into the paddock. There, I saw Dolly remained in the exact same spot where I'd last seen her.
"Dolly?" I was already out the gate as I called her name again.
She turned her head to look at me, while her body didn't move. Her expression was calm, but telling. I broke into a run as the realization of what was wrong dawned in my mind. Sprinting to her side, I found the problem was what I feared: Dolly was stuck in the fence. She had somehow gotten her left front foot over the bottom and middle smooth wire fence. She was fully trapped in that spot.
When it comes to finding ways to get themselves hurt or stuck, horses often take first prize. As gorgeous creatures that typically have big muscles and even bigger reactions, their responses to problems can often cause more harm than the problem itself. Horses have a natural into-pressure response, meaning when pressure is applied, their instinct is to go into the pressure, rather than away from it. This is a fantastic reaction when attacked by a pack of wolves (keeping a small puncture wound from becoming a major injury), but not so great when hung up on a fence (giving constant resistance until something breaks). And yet, even though this resistance is their natural response, here stood Dolly: completely stuck, but cool as a cucumber. What was she thinking as she stood there, defying all that survival instincts demand she do? Was it "Oh no; I'm stuck. Guess I'll just calmly stand here until Madison comes." She doesn't know how my hands and fingers work. She doesn't know how I know how I get her out of these situations. (Yes, they've happened before!) She only knows that I can, and that the best thing she can do is simply wait. She had faith that I would see her and come to her rescue.
With one hand pulling the two wires down and the other helping her lift her leg high enough to clear them, I quickly had Dolly free of the fence. A quick wellness check found that she had no scratches, wearing, swelling, or bruising. Whether she had been stuck for some time or just a few minutes, Dolly had clearly not struggled against her confines at all. Instead, she had done the best and only useful thing she could do, which was, well, nothing.
Have you felt stuck lately? Trapped? Confined? Without options? Whether it be by our own making or by situations beyond our control, our human nature is to fight against those restraints. We need action! We need to find solutions. A way out. At the very least, we want to look at some options. I doubt that the advice "If you're stuck, try just doing nothing." is going to make it into any inspirational quote books. But sometimes that is actually the very best thing we can do. Because our feeble human attempts to fix the problem can often only leave us more exhausted, more lost, more broken than before. We aren't slightly outgunned. We're completely without the means to rescue ourselves. And if we asked Dolly for her thoughts on this, she just might tell us, "Just wait calmly until help comes." And it will come. We have a Savior Who isn't waiting for us to tell Him we need help - He already knows, and He is already moving on our behalf. Before we even realized we were stuck, His plan for rescue was already set into motion. We don't know how He moves. We don't know what the rescue may look like. And we don't have to; all we need to know is that He is on His way. All that we need to do? Just wait. But oh, how hard that can be! We want answers. The world may even be asking us, 'Where is your God?' But know the difference between doing nothing because we have given up and doing nothing because we have confidence in our Lord. As Christians in these situations, we are actively waiting - in prayer, fellowship, and Scripture. And we can do it in complete confidence, because we've been rescued by Him before. And we can know without a shadow of a doubt that He will do it again. All we have to do is be still, in faith.

"For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence, for my hope is from him. He only is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken. On God rests my salvation and my glory; my mighty rock, my refuge is God. Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us. Selah." Psalm 62:5-8

"But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint." Isaiah 40:31
"The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him. It is good that one should wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord." Lamintations 3:25,26

It's been one of those days. Well, I guess it's been one of those weeks. You know the kind; you've had them, too. Days when everything just leaves you one step behind, with one more problem, and less energy than you need to face it all. I've been playing catch-up on my chores since Monday, it seems. Dixie is still on zero turnout, as we continue to deal with her metabolic issues. We've also found out that she's dealing with stomach ulcers again - because of the stress of being separated from the other horses, despite the supplements she's on. Dolly's arthritis had flared up, plus I had to reduce her pasture time, out of fear that the grass was bothering her feet again. And on top of all that, I found Reina favoring her front right leg this afternoon. I've iced her leg and have put her on stall rest tonight. She seems comfortable on her thick bedding and fresh hay. And we wait to see how she'll be tomorrow - while I battle panic and thoughts of:
Do we need a vet?
Can we wait until Monday?
Is there someone I can get on the weekend if it gets worse?
Does this ALWAYS have to happen when everyone is closed?!
Meanwhile, Reina happily munches on her dinner. And Cutter, whom I'm usually worried about, seems to be the only horse not making me second-guess myself. It's said that if you love what you do, you'll never work a day in your life. I'm here to tell you that whoever said that must have never had a passion for animals. Because I really and truly love what I do, and I wouldn't trade getting to live my dreams for anything in the world. But there are days I definitely feel like I'm working for it - days when I'm exhausted, overwhelmed, and drained of ideas and energy. Days when I just want to throw my hands in the air and cry, "I can't do this!" But I can do it, and I will. Not because it's easy, but because it's part of me. Because it's my passion, my calling. Because I love my four gorgeous mares, and they are worth all the worry, money, work, and time I may give.
Our lives can often feel like things at the stable this week - there are trials, hardships, and questions. Things seem to be falling apart in every direction. Loss of or reduced income at a critical time. Equipment is down, and the repair comes with a huge price tag. Family members are sick, and we're scared. Dear friends pass away suddenly, and we're trying to process the pain. And we're tired. We're confused. We're worried. We're grieving. And as Christians, sometimes we feel guilty for it. Because shouldn't we be able to handle this? We know God is in control; we know He is working all things together for our good. So why are these things happening to us? Why are we still scared and hurting in life? Where is our faith? Our courage? Shouldn't we be fine? What a blessing that God is not judging us for our struggles! Instead, He comforts us in our grief (Matthew 5:4); stays close to us when we are broken (Psalm 34:18); upholds us by His promises when we face trials (Psalm 119: 50). Loving Jesus does not get us a free ticket out of trials. In fact, the Bible guarantees trouble will come (John 16:33). And maybe it leaves us crying out, "I can't do this!" But friend, you can! You aren't doing this in your own, easily depleted strength. Your Christian walk is empowered by the mighty Hand of God (Philippians 4:13). He's the One carrying us through. Comforting us and wiping away our tears. And we stand up in faith each day because we love Him Who first loved us (1 John 4:!9). He is a part of us. This is our calling, and He will not abandon us in it. So whatever you may be facing today, know this: You are not alone! You are strengthened and loved by the Savior. So go forward in your love for the Redeemer - knowing He is worth far more than anything we might face.

"Let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted." Hebrew 12:1-3

"For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us." Romans 8:18

"Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but share in suffering for the gospel by the power of God, who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began." Timothy 1:8-9

🐴 Stable Thoughts - My Weekly Devotional
Did y'all have that frost? It wasn't a heavy frost by any means. And it quickly vanished in the light of day, but it was a startling reminder. This lovely Autumn is not going to last forever. And quite honestly, I was hoping to put off that reminder for as long as possible. Yes, I know we've passed the middle of October now, and chilly weather is to be expected. But I just wasn't ready to face the reality that winter is on its way. Yet as I grabbed a heavier jacket this morning and still felt a chill in my bones, my mind went to one major question: is the barn ready for winter? Even though we spend much of the summer preparing for the coming cold, there's still so much to do. Stocking up on the grains and beet pulp I order in case the roads are too icy for delivery trucks. Replenishing the hay I've had to use when the horses were required to be off pasture. Finding and, if needed, replacing heated buckets. Getting the loads of sawdust for bedding. This list goes on. So while I'm very happy to know that the temperatures will be back up in the 70's in the coming days, I don't want to get too comfortable. Because I want to get everything ready for the cold now. I don't want to have to scramble when winter actually gets here. So that when the snow flies, and the thermometer dips well below freezing, I can face it confidently, knowing that I'm prepared and ready for whatever winter plans to throw at us this year.
And isn't that something we all want in so many different areas of our lives? To be prepared before it comes. To be ready and able before the challenge arrives. We make plans, decisions, and preparations for things in life we know are coming. We pour in our time, energy, and resources so we can feel at rest. And yet, I cannot help but ask myself: do we spend that same amount of care in our spiritual lives? Because we know that satan is still prowling about. We know that one day we will experience heaven. We know these times are coming. But do we prepare for them in the same way we prepare for the arrival of winter? Our hearts and minds need to be renewed day by day. The devil will never stop trying to deceive and discourage God's people. So what can we do to prepare? We pour over Scripture; we spend time in prayer. We live out our faith in little moments. Each of these are ways to draw closer to Christ, our Savior and Source. And sometimes that is why God allows a little 'frost' into our lives. Those little trials or small leaps of faith we have to take. It's not to inconvenience or discourage us. It's to wake us up. It's a reminder of what is really important. A reminder of the spiritual battle we are in. It's a reminder to stay alert and prepared. So let's do! Memorize the verse. Set more time aside for prayer. Let go of things that no longer serve your position as representative of Jesus. That way, when the time comes for us to face the big things in life, we will be spiritually ready!
"Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance; but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.” 1 Peter 1:13-16
"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints." Ephesians 6:10 - 18

There was almost a crisp feeling to the air as I went out to the barn. I snagged my jean jacket and slipped it on as I stepped out of the sunroom door on my way to the barn. The horses eagerly accepted their morning feeding of grain, supplements, and hay before ambling out the now-open gate towards the pasture. After tending our goats and laying hens, I turned to start mucking out the stalls and paddock. That is when I saw that something had been busy overnight: a massive spider web stretched before me, almost two feet across and maybe longer from top to bottom. Even though I am definitely not a fan of spiders, there's no denying it was truly an impressive creation. It was huge, yet intricate; delicate, yet secure. It was a display of skill and had obviously been a time-consuming project. But unfortunately, it was also in the wrong place. You see, one of our resident web designers had built it between one of the rafters and our UTV, which I had parked inside the barn for the night. I'm sure from a spider's perspective it seems like a perfectly logical place to put it. It just failed to have the knowledge that since the UTV has wheels, it could and would move. And it was about to do so that very morning. To be honest, I felt just a little bad pulling the Mule UTV out a few minutes later, since it meant ripping down that spider's work.
And it reminded me of Matthew 7:26 & 27, where the Bible tells us about another who built something where it shouldn't have been: “...A foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.” Like the spider, we as humans often find ourselves building in places we shouldn't have built. We pour ourselves, our time, our energy, and resources into what we think is important. We work. We plan. We strive. We push ourselves and sometimes the people around us so that we can make it happen. And when it seems to be finally coming together, we proudly survey our accomplishments! We did it - we brought it to pass. And then, it all comes tumbling down, lying in rubble around our feet. So we blame God. This is true even for us as believers. We ask Him why He let this happen, why all that we'd done had to be lost. Maybe there was nothing wrong with what we were trying to do; maybe from our perspective, it looked like a beautiful idea. But notice, there was nothing wrong with the web itself, only where the spider chose to build it. The problem may not be a bad dream; it may simply be what we chose to build it on. Jesus is the only Rock, the only foundation that will actually endure. So if, in a shifting world, we have not built on the foundation of Christ, how can we expect it to stand? If we are relying on ourselves, or other people, or things of this world, we are the foolish man, building on the sand, where we already know storms will come... The sin isn't the plan; it's the pride or self-reliance behind it. And I wasn't moving the Mule to make the web fall; rather, the web fell because the Mule moved. It's the same with God. He's not standing there waiting to knock down our work. No, He stands ready to guide us, and comfort us when we are broken by our own choices. The loss isn't a sign that God isn't good, or isn't in control. The loss shows us that we didn't seek Him, didn't listen to His Voice.
Later that day, while working on a fence out in the far pasture, I saw another spider web. This one was connected to a large, permanent fence post and smooth wire. Now this web was going to last, not because of itself, but because of its foundation. So today, take a moment to examine all areas of your life - the big and small - and ask yourself, "Is this being built on Jesus Christ?"

“Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.” Matthew 7:24-27

"Built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit." Ephesians 2:20-22

"For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ." 1 Corintians 3:11

Dusk was falling here at Amazing Grace Stables when I was headed down the path in search of Dolly, Cutter, and Reina. Usually, they were back up, waiting at the gate by this time. But aside from Dixie, happily munching in the barn, my herd was out of sight. It was feeding time, and I was just slightly worried by their tardiness. So, I decided to go searching for them. The hum of crickets and the whisper of the breeze in the grasses was periodically broken by the howl of coyotes. Their yaps, barks, and cries sounded louder than normal tonight, I thought to myself as I climbed over the gate and set off into the pasture. Coyote howls usually do sound like they're right outside your window when they're actually miles away. Nevertheless, I snagged a long stick that I used as a walking stick. In the slippery patches of mud, it came in handy to maintain my balance. A coyote howled in the distance, and another answered - now that one really did sound close. Way closer than I would've liked. Nervousness crept up on me. I tried to push it away. It was just a coyote after all; no need for panic. Finally, I saw the three girls. There they stood grazing at that far end of the field, about 30 yards ahead. They looked up as I approached like, "Oh, is it that time already?" As I covered half of that distance, Cutter lifted her head and began ambling toward me. That's when I saw it. Moving so smoothly through the night-touched pasture that I first thought it was a shadow. Until it detached itself from the taller grasses and crossed the path in front of me. A coyote. Likely the one I'd been hearing and telling myself wasn't possibly that close. I swung my stick out in front of me like a sword. But it was not coming my way. It was walking between my horses.
"Reina! That is not a friend!" I yelled out.
(Those of you who have animals that try to befriend anything will understand why those were the first words out of my mouth in this situation). Yet before I could get more than ten or fifteen feet closer, it was gone. Disappearing into the next pasture, pointed toward the woods beyond that. But I wasn't looking at the coyote any more; I was looking at my horses. Cutter hadn't paused her step. Reina had continued grabbing huge mouthfuls of grass. And Dolly - good ole', bombproof, rock-solid Dolly - had not even spared it a glance. Apparently I was the only one concerned. The horses couldn't care less about this small predator, in spite of the fact that they were prey animals. Why? They knew that they not only had it outnumbered, but also out-muscled. They were confident in these truths.
Sometimes we live in fear of evil. We see it all around us. Moving in the darkness. Creeping. Screaming. Setting us on edge and stealing our peace. The Bible tells us that we, as Christians, are indeed engaged in spiritual warfare. And honestly, that's kind of scary. The devil is our enemy. Throughout the ages, he has never stopped looking for ways to destroy us, to attack us in any way possible. So we try to do what the scriptures tell us - stay in prayer (Romans 12:12), put on the armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18), and stay alert (Luke 21:36). But if we are doing any of this in our own strength, our spiritual battle will look a lot like me in the mud, brandishing a stick as a weapon while jumping in fear. We're definitely not impressing anyone. But what if we could stand our ground like my horses did tonight? What if our faith was so strong that satan was up at night trying to figure out how to get to us? What if we actually realized that as children of the King, we will always have the enemy outclassed? The prophet Elisha was living like this, in an actual battle where an army seeking his life had trapped him in a walled city. But Elisha didn't panic. And when his servant did, I can imagine him smiling as he asked God to reveal to his servant how protected they were. By any earthly standards, they were doomed. By heaven's standards, they had already won. Not because of their own power, but because of Who was with them. Because Elisha knew the power of God far outweighed anything that satan could ever throw at them. And that, my friend, is how we should live. We haven't been given a spirit of fear, but of power. Power imparted to us from an Almighty God. Power backed by all of the armies of Heaven. This is where our confidence is. This is where our peace is found. Not because we ignore our spiritual battle, but because we know the Power that stands beside us, where evil is outnumbered and outmuscled every single time.

"For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control." 2 Timothy 1:7

"His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us to his own glory and excellence." 1 Peter 1:3

"Then Elisha prayed and said, “O Lord, please open his eyes that he may see.” So the Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw, and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha." 2 Kings 6:17

Every morning has a similar start to the day for me. It generally begins at the same time unless my alarm clock or my brain decides to take some time off. I get up, get dressed, pull on boots, and head to the barn. I hand out hay, fill grain bowls, measure supplements, feed each horse, and try to make sure each horse eats only from their own bowls. I feed goats and chickens. I check everyone's health. As I work, I go through the mental questions of the day: Who's coming for a lesson today? What do I need to set up? Did I put that on my calendar? The questions go on. Usually I have the answers. Other times I double-check. All while I get everyone to their designated turnout, put the feed bowls back away, and clean out the stalls and paddock. This routine, with some variation for the season, has gone on for years. So, some might ask me, doesn't that feel monotonous? Don't you get tired of doing it, rain or shine, no matter what? The short answer is no. The complete answer is, yes, there are mornings that I'm tired, times I didn't get much sleep or that just I want to stay in bed; there are days I really don't want to muck out again. But all of those 'don't want'a's disappear the minute I step into the barn - I am greeted by those gentle, excited nickers, by warm velvet noses and chocolate brown eyes that can see into my heart. I watch my girls flolic and play as I let them out on to the grass. I often have one of them come to lean their head on my shoulder or follow me across the paddock. And suddenly how many hours of sleep I got doesn't matter any more. I am aware that I am exactly where I'm supposed to be and my heart is full. Because my love for horses and the reminder that I am acutally living my dream comes to me anew with each sunrise. It doesn't expire or take a vaction when the going gets tough. It's the driving force that carries me though the bitterly cold 6 am's of winter, the scorching heat of summer and loss of sleep that inevitably comes with it all. This life chose me and I chose this life. And I am so very blessed to get to live in it.
You know what else is new with each sunrise? God's love and mercy. Lamintations 3:23 that they are new every morning. God doesn't look down here one day and suddenly say, "Okay, you've messed up one too many times." and walk away. He doesn't tire of our weaknesses or get fed up with our brokeness. With the dawning of each new day, He wants you to know that He still loves you, because that is Who He is. He is a Father Who loves His children and He could not bear to see you struggle alone. But it goes even futher: it's the earth-shaking combination of His love and mercy. Becasue love that just makes excuses for sin and shame isn't really love. We serve a holy God; and that makes our sin and shortcomings serious. That's why we need His mercy. Love says 'I see you, even when you've messed up'; love says 'I won't leave you alone in it'. But mercy says 'I've know you've sinned, but I offer you a pardon'. Love and mercy together says, 'I will make you new; I will restore your soul'. So He chose to make a way - through the very death on the cross and resurrection on the third day - so that we could return to Him. Hallelujah, great is His faithfulness! If you are one of His, then you are a walking testimony of that very steadfast love and the mercy that knows no end. If you haven't made that decision yet, know that He has been waiting to lavish this indescribable gift on your life, if you will only surrender your heart to Him. He stands ready to pour out this faithfulness on us - whether for the first or one-hundred-thousandth time. Need love and mercy for the very first time? It's there. Need love and mercy for same thing again? It's still there, brand new with every dawning of each day. He remains faithful as He helps us back up and shows us a better way. So in the morning, relish in the fact that God's love and mercy - in quanities we can't even begin to imagine are yours today!

"The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. “The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in Him.” Lametations 5:22-24

"But I will sing of Your strength; I will sing aloud of Your steadfast love in the morning. For You have been to me a fortress and a refuge in the day of my distress." Psalm 59:16

Called Dolly, Cutter and Reina in from their grazing time today - watching my girls run to me never gets old! 💕🐎✨

Watching my horses run, graze, or just stand in the shade never ceases to stir my heart. No matter how many years I work with horses, no matter how many hours I spend beside them or on their back, I don't think I will ever get over how incredibly gorgeous these creatures are. They take my breath away. If you haven't recently seen a horse in motion, take a second to watch a clip of horses simply galloping across the field. I guarantee it will stir your heart too! They are such an incredible combination of beauty, grace, strength, compassion, excitement, joy, and fun. Whether collectively or individually, each of my horses is gorgeous in their own way. From Dolly's regal confidence and gentleness with new young students, to Cutter's striking beauty and personality, Reina's adorable expressions and amazing movements, to Dixie's picture-perfect, out-of-a-storybook appearance, they are all amazing in every way. You can tell they were perfectly and individually created to bring grace, memories, and beauty to this earth. Isn't it amazing how much detail God has put into His creation? Horses would be gorgeous if they were all exactly the same, and yet He has taken the time to give customized fur patterns - blazes, stockings, stars - not to mention their own personalities and talents. Just the amount of creation we see in our daily activities is enough to blow the mind if we will actually take it in! The flowers, the trees, the fresh air, the human ability to smile, laugh, feel joy, even tears. It is all completely beyond comprehension in detail and beyond all our knowledge. He takes the time to paint every flower petal while simultaneously creating horizon-filled masterpieces each morning and evening. And y'all, this is the kind of detail He gives to our temporary world! Let that sink in a minute. This world, for all of its glory, is just the opening act in the performance of God's creativity! I don't think I can even fully wrap my head around the enormity of that! So that leaves us with the question: how absolutely gorgeous, indescribably breathtaking must heaven be? As Christians, that's our permanent home, because we're just passing through on this Earth. The one He created in 7 days, at the sound of His voice, from oceans and mountains and everything in between, every creature that was, is, or will be. This Earth is more than we'll ever understand, and yet heaven will make this place look like a scribbled drawing compared to the greatest art the world has ever known. Because He has been creating our eternity all this time! Heaven, we talk about it, we sing about it; most all of us have someone we love who's there. And before we actually cross that golden sea, we can know that it is beyond any beauty, any emotion, anything we have ever imagined. So today, pause and wonder at the creation God has surrounded you with, and let your heart rise with me in this question: how beautiful must heaven be?!

"But, as it is written, "No eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love Him." 1 Corinthians 2:9

"But according to his promise we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells." 2 Peter 3:13
