Beautiful Feet ~ Sunday Devotion
And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!” Romans 10:15 (NIV)
Have you ever told someone they have beautiful feet? Yeah, me neither. Ha! Yet, I’ve never seen more feet selfies (Is that even what you call them?) than when I scroll the gram, especially those of runners. My latest devotional even has feet on the front and back! Feet have gotten their moment on the pages of social media.
The ladies in my Faith and Fitness Support and Accountability Community recently finished Mile a Day Challenge. Those beautiful feet logged at least one mile most days between Memorial Day and July 4. But not only did they log miles to move physically, they logged miles together on a spiritual journey with their sisters in Christ. They supported one another and lifted up each other with prayer and encouraging words.
Where are you going? Well, when I go out for my run, I generally know the miles and the route I want my feet to take me. I’m on a mission. What about your journey of life? Are you wandering aimlessly or do you have a message to share? Are you on a mission?
When it comes to your feet, you have two tasks: One is to carry His good news to others. And the second is to move your body so that you can do the first task. Click To TweetFirst, we must receive the good news of God’s love and grace for our own lives. Then, we are commissioned to take that love to others.
Beautiful feet have nothing to do with how photogenic your feet are or how many miles they cover but everything to do with being about the Father’s business. When it comes to your feet, you have two tasks: One is to carry His good news to others. And the second is to move your body so that you can do the first task.
God has planted you in a specific place among specific people. You don’t need to be able to run a marathon or even a 5K, but you need to be healthy so that you can be around to spread the message God has given you to the people He’s entrusted to you.
Are you caring for yourself so you can carry the good news to others?
Action Step: Go for a walk today. As you walk, think about the bigger picture and where God has placed you. Are you being faithful to the call? Could someone say to you, “You have beautiful feet”?
Happy Sunday!
