Holy Shoes

Today in one of my institute classes
We were talking about how you can pick any object
And you can tie that object back into Christ.

So I was thinking well....how about shoes?

Imagine a typical tennis shoe.

Now think of the shoe as Christ.

If you place your foot in the shoe.
You are placing yourself in Christ.

Trying to move in line with his plan.
Allowing him to help you out.
and Protect you from the 'bumps, rocks, thorns, glass, and other unpleasant options' that you might not see in front of you and will accidentally trod on as you walk the path of life.

Now you may place your foot in the shoe.
Place yourself in Christ.

But....there are ways where you won't fully be "In Christ."
If you don't tie the laces up tightly -(the laces could be scripture reading, prayer, going to church)
you might not feel as secure in Christ.
If the laces are loose you might end up being tripped up because of them.
Or the shoe might unexpectedly slip off your foot.... and you'll be left exposed....to those rocks and thorns...

Now....
I bet other analogies could be made
with the Sock.
Or if you chose to wear flip flops where you should wear sturdy shoes....

Yes lots of analogies can be made with shoes and Christ. :) lol.
What shoe are you wearing currently? If they have laces or straps...are they done up tight? Or are they loose for the convenience of being able to take them off easier?

Until you next see these words;
I'll be watching the leaves.
Enjoy the day!
