Feet...and God's gentle leading

"...He will never make you take one step beyond what your feet are able to endure.  Never mind if you think you are unable to take another step, for either He will strengthen you to make you able, or He will call a sudden halt, and you will not have to take it at all."  Frances Ridley Havergal


My "everyday" foot fashion look! LOL

With my RA and Fibro being in what feels like a never-ending flare for so very long now...my mornings are especially challenging and painful...I move slowly...and as the RA keeps flaring seemingly in every joint...my feet have changed...and hurt.  These ugly green crocs are one of my best friends.

I was so blessed this morning by this devotion in Streams in the Desert!  He knows my pain...He knows my hurts...and that my feet hurt...He knows my limitations...and He truly has been faithful to either strengthen me for His purposes...or has many times called a halt...either by cancellations, or illness...or even snowstorms...He calms the storms of these diseases...He soothes my soul.

Taking life one day at a time...moment by moment...trusting in His leading...He will direct where my feet go...and not one step outside of His will.

May you be strengthened and encouraged to trust our Shepherd to guide your steps....moment by moment.  ~Sue~
