Mother and foal, Holmes County, July '05
This foal is probably destined to pull a plow and/or a buggy. Eventually, it will be separated from its mother, through death or auction.
Thoughts expressed in the previous post, combined with sentiments generated by this picture, bring to the forefront the area of my greatest concern, and that of many parents of children with significant handicaps: what will happen to our child when we are gone? Can I give God "free range" of that time and space? Believe His love will be practically there, for our son?
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38-39 KJV
