The Fourth Horse

The fourth horse is the White Horse, the conquering horse. “Driven by a hundred forms of fear, self-delusion, self-seeking, and self-pity….” Words have power. Too heal, to harm, to start a war or stop one, to spread love or condemn. Our words mark us and lay the foundation for the future, a future of either freedom or bondage. Are we willing to let others suffer, under any justification? Do we look down upon anyone for any reason? Do we believe in freedom for all? Do we trust God, Really? Are we willing to stand for truth, possibly at great personal risk or do we soft pedal it to save hurt feelings or ourselves?

Living on the Spiritual Basis we no longer hide behind generalities. When we marginalize anyone, for any reason, we marginalize everyone. To ride the White Horse to freedom requires more courage than we are capable of on our own, but with God all things are possible. So we abandon ourselves to God, asking Him to remove any lingering prejudices or sacred cows still holding us back, grabbing the mane of the conquering horse as it speeds by, holding on with all our might. We do not try to rein him in or guide him for he will toss us off if we do for His vision is clear, His sights set, His destination the heart of God, for it is none other than God himself who sent him to us and He will provide the abiding strength necessary to hold on and ride to freedom, if we are but willing.
