These Shoes
Most people can see you without really knowing what is on your mind
making comments about the shoes you wear because they are worn
and leaning to the side
Laughing saying how they would not be caught wearing raggedy shoes
such as these although for you it is a blessing for you to have these
shoes on your feet
For everyone can't wear these shoes they are yours and fit you just right
there appearance should be be the last thing on someone's mind while you have
these shoes in your sight
Just to walk in someone else's shoes is extraordinary in it self history confirms
that so many have tried and ultimately have failed
In these shoes you can walk life's path through someone else's eyes it is not
an easy task to see another's hopes and dreams there beginnings and endings and
how they paid the price
Everyone's shoes have walked a different path some have strolled the red carpet while
others have walked through fire and glass to their future and from their past
Although to each it was never a bother like Jesus Christ the shoes he wore made him
destined to walk on water because he was the son of our most gracious father
All I'm saying is shoes ate shoes no matter what style or size it is the feet in the shoes
that makes a difference even when they are tired and ugly to the eye
So next time just stop that person and ask them where those shoes have taken them
in life and if you actually stop and talk to them you can see their whole life story from
the expression in their eyes
