Some steps are refreshing, like splashing water in a cool, mountain stream.
Some steps are pleasant, like a stroll in summer's lush, green grass.
Some steps are painful, like walking barefoot on a rocky path.
Some steps require patience, like shifting slowly through sand toward the ocean.
Some steps are uneven, like trying to move when one foot is broken.
Some steps are quiet, like tiptoeing around a baby's crib.
Some steps are joyful, like running toward the arms of a loved one.
Some steps are difficult, like weary, worn feet after a long day's work.
Some steps are frightening, like moving in a dark room, trying to avoid large objects.
Yet all steps are purposeful on this journey as they take us closer to Him.
How reassuring to know that when we can no longer stand, He not only holds our hand, but reaches down, picks us up and carries us Home...in His arms.
I am amazed. I am grateful. I am never alone.<3~thl
