Strengthening Her Endurance - Post 5 - EQUIP & ENGAGE!

I don’t know about you, but it seems I’ve been hearing the words "journey" and "path" a lot lately.  There are all sorts of paths that we can take.  I guess it is even safe to say we are all on a journey of some type.  I think the biggest obstacle we can face on our journey is the choice to take that first step.  Sometimes it is easy to take the first step.  Journeys like college, marriage and parenthood are pleasure trips compared to the journey of weight loss, divorce, and the empty nest.  No matter what path we are one we have someone that cheers us on.  God calls us off the sidelines, gives us the much needed pep talk and pushes us to the starting line.  He does everything possible to equip us, but we must choose to take that first step.

All it takes is one step.  God’s path for you is filled with good things.  Jeremiah 42:3 says “show me the way in which I should walk and the thing I should do.”  He will show you and if you are careful to follow where he guides you, He will not let you off the path.  Trust God to provide the strong shoes.  Once you take that first step God promises he will lead you and guide you.

Psalm 37:23 “The steps of a man are established by the LORD, and He delights in his way.”

Isaiah 30:21 "Your ears will hear a word behind you, "This is the way, walk in it," whenever you turn to the right or to the left."

In the Equip and Engage swap-shop , we learned that we are always equipped for the path we are on.  You will be equipped with exactly what you need, not what someone else will need.  Your path is YOUR path; it is as unique as you are.   

Step on your path with purpose!
