Walking

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.

– Lao Tzu

The ancient Chinese sure had that one nailed. Once you started walking, how many steps have you taken? My great-grandson just started walking, and I wonder how his many steps will take him into the unknown.

Great things lie ahead if you make the right steps today. Bad things lie ahead if you make the wrong steps. Military soldiers who clear landmines know what we’re talking about.

Psalm 119:133

Keep steady my steps according to Your promise, and let no iniquity get dominion over me.

Jeremiah 10:23

I know, O Lord, that the way of man is not in himself, that it is not in man who walks to direct his steps.

Job 14:16

For then You would number my steps; You would not keep watch over my sin?

Like the old song from the sixties, “These boots were made for walking.” Give it some thought.
