My favorite and comfortable sandals are ready for disposal! The two parts of the sole of one is coming unglued.

Next time I go shopping, I have to find new ones!

But then I thought, "I will look behind my closet door", which holds about a dozen pairs of shoes which are seasonal or ones I wear infrequently.

And there was a relatively new pair of summer shoes waiting for me to wear!!

Made me think of all the things which I possess as a Christian. Maybe don't remember that I have them.

Here's one: 2 Timothy 1:7 says, "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of POWER and of LOVE and a STRONG MIND". (Good News Testament)

Like my sandals, we possess POWER. LOVE.  A STRONG MIND. Whether we recall we have them or not!
