Good morning…

“Slow down your feet,” the voice of a loving mom reminded her preoccupied preschooler. As the crowd rushed away from Sunday morning worship, I heard above the energized din, “Slow down your feet.”

“Don’t run!” I have heard before. “Slow down your feet,” is a new thing.

This morning, I remind all of us: “Slow down your feet.” Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit (Galatians 5:25, NIV). Walk to the crib of the baby Jesus, who is being born into our daily lives in brand new ways.

“Forget the former things;
do not dwell on the past.
See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness
and streams in the wasteland” (Isaiah 43:18-19, NIV).
