"He (God) does not hopscotch through life, jumping over squares...He hits every step." (Jamie Buckingham).Hopscotch is a game that has been played by children for over 400 years, and is still being played on school grounds today despite the electronic games available.
In life God never skip steps (or hopscotch) with our lives. He brings us through every step, preparing us for the task that He has planned for us. It is when we try to skip a step that we misstep and often fall.
God orders every step of our life and delights in every detail (or every step) of our life. I am personally thankful for every step that God has allowed me to take. I look up at the stairway of life ahead and see other steps to take.
My prayer this morning is that God will help me to patiently take one step at a time, and not try to skip a step. That God will find delight in the steps I take and that they will always bring glory (and not a reproach) to His name.
Today I continue to take one step at a time!
"The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way" (Psalms 37:23 NKJV).
