FEBRUARY 28, 2020 – LIKE DEER’S FEET
17 Though the fig tree may not blossom, Nor fruit be on the vines; Though the labor of the olive may fail, And the fields yield no food;
Though the flock may be cut off from the fold, And there be no herd in the stalls—
18 Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
19 The LORD God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer’s feet, And He will make me walk on my high hills. Habakkuk 3: 17 - 19
Basically, God will make me adaptable and resilient, and able to climb steep mountains. Resiliency is the ability of a body to regain its original size and shape after being compressed, bent or stretched. The ability to recover from or adjust easily to change or misfortune.
I am reminded of
So just like a deer’s feet may not make it up the mountain on the very first attempt, it doesn’t give up until it reaches the top. Keep climbing.
