I got a new pair of shoes on Friday and I have always wandered how to lace up shoes in that cool straight across way. Well, I found a lacing website, imagine that…
While I was lacing up I was thinking of how this could relate to our walk with Christ. There are many different ways and techniques to lace up a shoe, but only one purpose, to keep the shoe on. There are so many different ways of worshipping God, so many different doctrines, and different Christian “pedigrees”. However, Paul instructs not to divide ourselves over these things, we shouldn’t get all tangled up and forget that the purpose is to keep the shoe on. Our purpose is to live in this world, but not of it.
