Baby Steps August 29, 2015
He makes my feet like the feet of a deer.
Psalm 18:33 niv
My baby is learning to walk. I have to hold her, and she clings to my fingers because she is still unsteady on her feet. She is afraid of slipping, but Im there to steady her and watch over her. As she walks with my help, her eyes sparkle with gratitude, happiness, and security. But sometimes she cries when I dont let her take dangerous paths, not realizing that I am protecting her.
Like my baby girl, we often need someone to watch over us, to guide and steady us in our spiritual walk. And we have that someoneGod our Fatherwho helps His children learn to walk, guides our steps, holds our hand, and keeps us on the right path.
King David knew all about the need for Gods watchful care in his life. In Psalm 18 he describes how God gives us strength and guidance when we are lost or confused (v. 32). He keeps our feet steady, like the feet of the deer that can climb high places without slipping (v. 33). And if we do slip, His hand is there for us (v. 35).
Whether we are new believers just learning to walk in the faith or we are further along in our walk with God, all of us need His guiding, steadying hand.
Dear Father, hold my hand and lead me in the paths of right living.
God watches over me every step of the way.
Charles Haddon Spurgeon wrote of Psalm 18: It should be observed that the words of this song were not composed with the view of gratifying the taste of men, but were spoken unto Jehovah. It were well if we had a more single eye to the honour of the Lord in our singing. . . . That praise is little worth which is not directed solely and heartily to the Lord. David might well be thus direct in his gratitude, for he owed all to his God, and in the day of his deliverance he had none to thank but the Lord, whose right hand had preserved him. We too should feel that to God and God alone we owe the greatest debt of honor and thanksgiving. Bill Crowder

Speaking of Animal Mysteries, The Phantom German Shepard has returned yet again to my fenced back yard.
I have no idea how this 80 lb dog is getting into my yard.
My Black Lab seems to like it and the Shepard acts like he lives here, no tags, a complete stow away.
Not sure what to do. I really don’t need another mouth and responsibility.
How do I fit 2 80lb dogs in the cab of my pickem up truck?
Yer crimping my style buddy

That IS a mystery.
Shepherds are beautiful creatures. Do you have a GSD Rescue place near you?

Lynn-Dah-The-Chowbrador does a magnificent job of telling me when there is a disturbance in the atmosphere.
It thunders, she barks.
