** This thread discusses the content article: feet, feet, FEET! **

That foot, her foot, boy foot, girl foot, how mant many many feet you'll meet! Didn't you love reading fun kid stories as a child?! Most were so silly and fun, even if they were about...FEET! What is crazy to think about is that God actually mentions feet in His stories! I know-we think they smell bad, wish they were bigger or smaller, paint our toe nails, and get flip flop tan lines, but there is a message from God about feet as well...


In Proverbs 6:18, It says "Feet that are quick to rush into evil", and in Isaiah 59:7, God tells us of feet that are rushed into sin! As we reflect on these verses, we automatically realize that these are about negitive or "stinky" feet. God also tells of feet that are here to bring good news or "pretty feet" in Isaiah 52:7 and Nahum 1:15.


It would be fair to say that everyone would rather have "pretty feet" over "stinky feet". What are some things that we can do as christians to make our feet less "stinky" but "pretty?" Spiriturally, what does stinky feet even mean? Spiritually, stinky feet would be the feet that are quick to rush into evil like it says about in Proverbs. This would be the girl that doesn't think about the chioces she makes but rushes right into evil with every opportunity she has. The girl that when someone asks her to do something that isn't a good idea says, "OH YEAH, I'M TOTALLY DOWN FOR THAT!" The girl that knows the difference between good and evil and chooses evil everytime. Feet that are quick to rush into evil are STINKY! What do pretty feet look like spiritually? Pretty feet would be the feet that God tells us about in Isaiah 52 and Nahum 1. This girl has the feet that bring good news! This is the girl that when asked to do something that isn't a good idea says "How about we come up with something else to do instead?" or the girl that goes out of her way to tell others about Christ and share the good news with anyone and everyone!


There are many examples in the bible of washing feet. It is time to wash our own feet of that awful "stinky" smell, and make them PRETTY again by sharing the good news with others. Let us, as young Christian girls, have the type of feet that Jesus wouldn't feel the need to wash because they are so spotless and pure. Let us use our feet to get out there and spred the GOOD NEWS!


 

I want to have pretty feet! The beautiful feet that bring good news!
