Today my steps seemed especially easy as if my way had been prepared, smoothed out for me. I’ve done the treadmill for years and enjoy the smooth walking surface, I don’t particularly go for the resistance part that the treadmill has the capability of, just a steady pace to keep the heart rate up is what I’m after. Normally life’s steps aren’t smooth, there are upgrades to pull, bumps to circumvent, curves to take but it sure is nice when things go smoothly in the midst of these obstacles. Therein lies a key, even life’s hurdles can be taken smoothly. The steps I took today had purposes in mind, I understood there were time frames that might impact accomplishing these tasks, yet the places I was going to get them done were familiar places, the task were things I had done before so I knew what to expect. Isn’t it amazing how even the most difficult steps we take are made to seem easy when we know what to expect? Repetition might seem tedious but it can prepare us to walk smoothly through things which might have seemed daunting. I’ve also found that I can enjoy these steps no matter where they take me or how many curves I might be thrown because Abba has prepared the way, making my path smooth. I can enjoy the journey for He has determined to be with me every step of the way.
