This week's Five Minute Friday Challenge prompt was "steady". Go!
Steady...2 verses came to mind as I prayed about what to write this week.
Psalm 18:36 (NLT) "You have made a wide path for my feet to keep them from slipping.
I also like the CEB (Common English Bible) version: "You’ve let me walk fast and safe, without even twisting an ankle."
When I was younger, I seemed to fall a lot and had frequent twisted/sprained ankles. So, when I attempted rollerblading last summer, I was hesistant with my "weak ankles". However, with the encouragement of my daughter and husband, and a hand to hold onto every once in a while, I tried, succeeded and had alot of fun.
I think that's how God is. He wants us to reach out to Him so He can steady us. When life feels like we are rocking in a canoe or riding a roller coaster, He is steady, because He NEVER changes!
Habakkuk 3:19 reminds us that "The Lord God is my strength. He will set my feet like the deer. He will let me walk upon the heights."
God wants us to walk above with Him!
So, reach out to Jesus today, and let Him keep you steady!
STOP!
This post is part of Kate Motaung's "Five Minute Friday," which she hosts on the brand new Five Minute Friday website. Kate posts a single word each week and each blogger sets a timer for 5 minutes to write and then posts, with very little editing. This is an exercise in the discipline of writing.
