A SPACIOUS PLACE

Wednesday, March 26, 2014


I used to hate Oklahoma's featureless spaces, to find the empty landscape almost maddening. But now that I've lived in a place so choked with concrete apartment towers that I couldn't even glimpse a patch of sky, a place so dark and dank that mold was sprouting from the walls, something about the expansive emptiness of the Oklahoma horizon seems consoling. It reminds me of this verse from Psalm 18: He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me.

Oh, and the elegant creatures above? They live at Silver Wind Stables, a little piece of equine paradise owned by my friend Ashley. Look it up if you're ever in town; there's nothing quite as comforting as a horse's muzzle.
