Keep Walking!

The Lord directs the steps of the godly.
      He delights in every detail of their lives.
Though they stumble, they will never fall,
      for the Lord holds them by the hand. Psalm 37:23-24

Taking a detour from my series on speech today.   Recovery is hard; each step is another reflection to the exposure of my heart.  Who really enjoys knowing they have things that need work...continually?  Sometimes it gets weary.   Sometimes I want to give up... sometimes I get tired --- tired of walking.

When I do things in  my own strength; I stumble; yet this scripture passage spoke to me in a profound way.  Even WHEN I stumble - I will NEVER fall.   The Lord is holding my hand!  Did you notice it said "when" not "if"...God knows that this journey isn't easy.  He knows that with each day comes new trials, temptations and trauma.  Yet, He walks with me. 

This truth makes the walk feels so much lighter today.  So today I Keep Walking!
