Worn Out Shoes!!

 Old worn out shoes! Have you ever thought about the miles you’ve walked in the shoes you’ve worn through the years? Old shoes have a way of reminding us that it’s time to stop and be comfortable. This morning’s walk was challenging in my old summer shoes. Thankfully every step taken allowed a moment to pause and be thankful. Yes, walking in worn out shoes can give you a heart filled with gratitude. Oftentimes they’re journeys filled with silent prayers; even when they don’t seem to fit exactly the way you’ve anticipated. Steps in old shoes are filled with memories of beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Each step taken is fashioned after the walk you’ve chosen and you can take these steps with anticipation. At times the Lord may have to carry you along some bumpy paths. These gravely curves and rugged bends in the road are often the worn out shoes scuff marks. They’ve been extremely helpful to keep your focus and guard up when shod with Gospel. Take a moment to reflect on the steps you’ve taken, and pathways avoided. Those old worn out shoes can help to share Gods Word with others and help soften a heart for healing and strength.  Peace be still today in your worn out shoes. (Ephesians6:10-12)  Blessings.
