Beautiful FeetAn excerpt from Serving in His Steps

Runners take good care of their feet. They take great care as they buy shoes. They dont mind

spending a few extra dollars on socks. They stretch their Achilles tendons. When youre a

runner, foot care is not optional. Even so, few runners would enter their feet in a beauty

contest. Calluses form and no matter how careful we are, new shoes often cause blisters.

Those who run for fun and exercise usually cant boast of having beautiful feet. But those

who run with the message of Jesus Christ, crucified and risen, always can! Certainly our

pastor and other staff members here at Praise Temple fit into the beautiful feet category!

Gods prophet, Isaiah, once wrote (52:7): How beautiful on the mountains are the fe et of

those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim

salvation, who say to Zion, Your God reigns!

Every one of Christs ambassadors walks on beautiful feet! Every special envoy of heavens

High King carries the message of a wonderful salvation, the salvation Jesus himself won for

us on Calvarys cross. That message cant help buy beautify every part of us even our feet!

As Isaiah says, our pastor, church staff, and volunteers

- Bring Good Newsthe news of sins forgiven.- Proclaim Peace the peace of heart that comes to all who abandon rebellion and

receive instead our Fathers love.- Bring Good Tidingstidings of great joy for everyone who clings to Jesus in faith.- Proclaim Salvation that God-given gift of wholeness in spirit, purpose in life,

comfort in trouble, hope in tragedy, and heaven in death.A beautiful messageone carried on beautiful feet!
