The Message in our Footprints

[Daily Selah]

When my children were small, they had a hard time walking in snow deeper than a few inches. If we were going out into the yard to make a snowman, I'd tell them, "Walk in Mama's footprints." When they walked where I had walked, they were less likely to get stuck or to lose a boot in the snow. 


Whether we're conscious of it or not, you and I are leaving footprints on the path of life for all who will come after us.


What message will our footprints leave behind for the next generation?


Will they find their way by following us, or will they wander, confused without direction or a light to guide their way?
