“Sometimes we don’t know why we’re on a certain road with God until miles have made their way to the soles of our feet.” from Stepping Up, by Beth Moore.
Review Mirroring It
as life follows its curves
motives contribute to change
the bends, the detours
of delights and disturbances.
the certain road might
vanish we are distracted
dismayed
disappointed.
my feet are calloused rough
bunioned toes angle
unbecoming but functional.
soles know my story
a different kind of soul seeks
to transport me as that road
that certain road
becomes where i have journeyed
all along…
through the years…
and it’s ok.
The above poem was written this morning in response to a Jill Badonsky prompt:
- Open a book and grab a sentence, make it your own and keep going.
I am currently working my way through Beth Moore's Bible study, Stepping Up, on the Psalms of Ascent. I thoroughly enjoy her literary approach to this study. Needless to say, I love this particular sentence from Day One, page 13. I am just beginning and excited to have this resource.
More about Jill's class next blogging effort and the possibility of becoming trained in her method of creative life coaching.
