Day 45-My Ankles

The Man in the Mirror Journey
is a journey of walking out of a tomb and recognizing everyday the beauty and significance of how God created us. Instead of rebounding and finding esteem in the arms of someone else, these are the step to seeing it in the arms of God
Day 45
My Ankles

Old Reflection
Isaiah 3:16
The LORD says, "The women of Zion are haughty, walking along with outstretched necks, flirting with their eyes, tripping along with mincing steps, with ornaments jingling on theirankles.

God's Healing & Restoring power
Acts 3:6
Peter said, "I don't have a nickel to my name, but what I do have, I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk!" He grabbed him by the right hand and pulled him up. In an instant his feet and ankles became firm. He jumped to his feet and walked.

Psalm 105:16
Then he called down a famine on the country, he broke every last blade of wheat. But he sent a man on ahead: Joseph, sold as a slave. They put cruel chains on his ankles, an iron collar around his neck, Until God's word came to the Pharaoh, and God confirmed his promise. God sent the king to release him. The Pharaoh set Joseph free; He appointed him master of his palace, put him in charge of all his business To personally instruct his princes and train his advisors in wisdom.

New Reflection
You broaden the path beneath me, so that my ankles do not turn.

You broaden the path beneath me, so that my ankles do not turn.

Prayer
Father thank you for the journey that is not limited to time or emotion! Thank you for teaching us how to feed ourselves with the word and with your daily bread.
Knowing that this is a new diet you teach us that you have prepared and "broadened" the path beneath our ankles so that our "ankles will not turn! Thank you for know us well enough to design a path laid out in Grace!
We move forward in peace and understanding that in some case your promise is enough to hope for not what is in front of us! So continue to blur out the distractions, continue to blurr out the negativity and bring us to the attention of how we "reflect you" and how the beauty within us is shining in spite of the present condition...even if it never changes...let us have contentment and peace
In Jesus Name
Amen
