1 John 2:6 “Whoever says they abide in HIM should (even must!) walk in the same way in which HE walked.”
IN Steps!
As Heaven’s witness
to all we walk through,
so HE sees those things
which birth Prayer.
Then lifting to Heaven
both trials and pains
so joined are our cries
by HIS care.
IN steps HE purposed
there felt is HIS grace
where HE rewards all
those who follow.
Not at a distance,
nor off to the side
but withIN every
footprint HE makes.
Learn then each outline,
oh Self! Yea, walk well
ONLY where HIS WORD
leads!
As HIServant daily re-reminded to read HIS WORD closely and watch for HIS steps,

Devotional: 1 Peter 2:21 “For to this you have been called, because CHRIST also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow…in HIS steps.”
Reading with purpose is just like walking with intent.
If the Bible doesn’t interest us enough to read daily and without
Routine’s time table,
then how do we know WHERE exactly we’re going today?
To work, to school, to daily obligations AREN’T then the “where are we going?” but the “Why?”
So when trials and troubles come, the depths of HIS footprints on each page do much more than keep us from slipping!
In addition, HIS sovereign outlines daily gift us with divine directions and course corrections.
So all HIS spiritual instructions are right there for us to follow them…IN step!
Amen and amen!
