SOMETHING IS SHIFTING AT DHRR… and I believe we’re about to see why God made us slow down. ❤️😭🙌🏽

I can feel it. God is taking DHRR into a NEW SEASON.

From the outside, this may have looked like a season of rest. Things slowed down. I was literally forced to sit still. 😂 But GOD has not been still.

He’s been working behind the scenes shifting things, aligning things, bringing the right people, providing what we need and preparing this place for what’s coming.

And I believe He’s been doing some healing too. ❤️‍🩹 Healing things in us before He asks us to pour back out. Strengthening our foundation. Reminding us that sometimes God has to slow us down before He can send us forward.

Because I truly believe He is preparing the people who are about to walk through these gates.

Kids who need someone to believe in them. Women who need to remember who they are. Families who need hope. People carrying hurt, rejection, trauma and lies they’ve believed about themselves for years.

And God already knows every single one of their names.

We may not know them yet, but HE DOES. 😭🙌🏽

That gets me.

He’s preparing us for them, and I believe He’s preparing them for this place.

The kids. The families. The horses. HIS ministry. The healing. The opportunities for people to encounter Jesus right here at this little ranch.

I don’t know exactly what it’s all going to look like yet, and I’m okay with that. I just know the One leading it.

“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens.” Ecclesiastes 3:1

The rest wasn’t wasted. The waiting wasn’t wasted. The healing wasn’t wasted. God has been preparing the ground.

DHRR is stepping into a new season, and I cannot WAIT to meet the people He’s going to send us to love, serve and pour into.

All glory belongs to HIM. ❤️🐴🙌🏽

Beginning the day with this view and a grateful heart. ❤️

God has been so faithful to DHRR through every season, the good, the hard, and everything in between. We may not always know what’s next, but we know Who does.

Thankful for this little ranch, these horses, every person God sends through our gates, and every single person who helps make it possible. 🤎🐴

Barn fashion show: DHRR edition. 🐴😂✨

Okay, we need to know…
What would your horse wear if they could pick their own outfit?
Cowboy? Princess? Superhero? Something completely ridiculous? 😂👇🏼

Surgery went well on Tuesday, and I’m so thankful for that. 🤍 But the pain since surgery has been unimaginable. I’ve endured a lot of painful things, but this has by far been the hardest.
I’m taking it one day at a time and trusting God through every part of the healing process. 🙏🏼 If you would, please keep me in your prayers as I walk through these next few days of pain, healing, and recovery. I know God is with me even on the days when it hurts more than I can explain.

I am so incredibly thankful for everyone who has reached out, sent prayers, checked on me, and dropped off food. And a big thank you to the girls that are taking care of the horses and barn chores each day 2x a day! Your kindness and support have meant more to me than you know!🤎

“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” — Psalm 46:1 ✝️🤍

🚨 BIG UPDATE & HOW YOU CAN HELP DHRR! 🚨

A few of you have reached out asking how you can support us while I’m recovering. As some of you know, I broke my foot and am heading into surgery tomorrow morning, which puts me unable to get around as much for the next 6 weeks.
While lessons, sessions, and on-farm activities are temporarily on hold, our daily responsibilities don't stop! The horses still need to be fed, cared for, and the barn expenses keep coming.
The good news? You can help us keep things running smoothly right from your phone, without spending a dime!
Because our page is monetized, every bit of engagement generates crucial funds for the farm:
👍🏽LIKE & REACT to every post you see in your feed.
💬COMMENT on our updates, photos, and videos (even a quick word or emoji boosts us!).
✅SHARE our posts to your feed or story so more people see our mission.
A quick tap on your screen while scrolling goes directly toward feeding and caring for the herd while I heal.
Prefer to make a direct contribution? If you’d like to donate anything, you can visit DHRR.org to support the farm directly.
Thank you all so much for the love and support. Drop some healing thoughts in the comments below, and don't forget to hit Share! 🐴
