putting your best foot forward

The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looksat the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.Verse from 1 Samuel 16:7

Tonight I go to back to school night at the kids new school. The teachers and school staff have been preparing for the new kids to start the year. They have put the names on desks and cubbies, prepared lessons, and cleaned everything for a fresh new start.
My kids have also prepared for going back to school. The have picked out new school shoes, new clothes, and new school supplies. I made sure they had what they needed, and most of what they wanted for school. So now the teachers and the students are all ready to put their best foot forward. Are you?
As a Christian we are called to be a light in the darkness. To stand out above the rest. To avoid the pitfalls of those that don't believe. So as you pick out the new school supplies, and new clothes, prepare your heart as well. Know that God has a plan for you. When you start the year plan to look at what God has planned for you. Where he needs you, and you will thrive. He wants you, and to use you in a mighty way this school year. Be prepared to put your best foot forward.
