Walking in His shoes



This Livey girl is way beyond my understanding sometimes. I took one thing from this video and compared it to our daily living- The way we try to take things into our own hands...and walk in shoes too big for our feet and what happens? We fall. We fall. We can't do it on our own. We think we are in control and try to live our lives the way we want to live them without the patience of waiting for the Lord to tell us his plan and the trust in Him to be in control. And most times, we try our own way, and when we fall, we keep trying. I find it interesting in this video, that Livey, after the first time falling in "Papa's" shoes, she took them off and put them up. Yes, surprisinly she took them off and put them up on the fireplace. If only we were that wise. If only we as grown adults, could say "Lord, you know what is best. I'm not doing this without you. Please help me". We would be so much better off.

Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6
