Sure-footed as the deer


Have you ever wondered how you will face your next obstacle without stumbling and falling flat on your face? Well, if you answered YES, then these words from Habakkuk will give you some hope and guidance.

"Elohim Adonai is my strength!
He makes me swift and sure-footed as a deer
and enables me to stride over my high places." - Habakkuk 3:19 (Complete Jewish Bible)

The NIV puts it slightly differently, but it makes the same point. God is our strength and God gives us the ability to be sure-footed.

The Sovereign Lord is my strength;
    he makes my feet like the feet of a deer,
    he enables me to tread on the heights.

Living in Grace

D3LM3
