Walk with Deer

Our reading for today is Habakkuk 3:19.

“GOD the Lord is my strength; He makes my feet like those of a deer and stations me upon the heights.”

This verse is a quiet testimony that God gives strength for steep places. Habakkuk does not brag about his own courage. He simply says the Lord is his strength. I need that reminder, because hard roads tempt me to look within and measure my own limits. But grace does not begin with me. It begins with God. Look at verse 19. The deer does not remove the rocks or lower the hill. It is simply given steady footing. That is such a tender picture of the Christian life. God may not change the path today, but He will steady your step on it. He gives balance for rough ground, courage for high places, and peace enough to keep climbing with quiet confidence in Him.

I’m Lonnie Davis and these are thoughts worth thinking.

Prayer: Lord, when the road is steep, be my strength, steady my steps, and teach my heart to trust You completely.
