"Here are two things provided for the pilgrim: shoes and strength.
The shoes: We shall not go barefoot; this would not be suitable for princes of the royal blood. Our shoes shall have soles of durable metal, which will not wear out even it the journey be long and difficult. We shall have protection proportionate to the necessities of the road and the battle. So let us march boldly on, fearing no harm even though we tread on serpents, or set our foot upon the dragon himself.
The strength: It shall be continued as long as our days shall continue, and it shall be proportioned to the stress and burden of those days. This day we may look for trial and for work, which will require energy, but we may just as confidently look for equal strength. Let us rise to the holy boldness, which it is calculated to create within the believing heart."

Heavy Duty Shoes
Your sandals shall be iron and bronze; as your days, so shall your strength be.
~ Deuteronomy 33:25
The shoes: We shall not go barefoot; this would not be suitable for princes of the royal blood. Our shoes shall have soles of durable metal, which will not wear out even it the journey be long and difficult. We shall have protection proportionate to the necessities of the road and the battle. So let us march boldly on, fearing no harm even though we tread on serpents, or set our foot upon the dragon himself.

Thank You Lord, for giving us shoes that will never wear out on our journey, and thank You for giving us the strength to be able to continue on in our journey with You. In Jesus' precious Name, Amen.
