Small Steps

Small steps are dangerous to demons. You only need to take one step to put things behind you. One step and you’ve moved on from your past and start moving toward your promises. One step is a different environment, a different mindset, a different perspective. Small steps, even taken with long gaps of time between them, add up. It can take time. Sometimes you take a lot of small steps and only get from your front porch to the sidewalk. But you’ve moved forward. There’s no shame in walking slowly. Walking slowly allows you to take things in. Breathe the fresh air, feel the cool air on your face, and be aware of your surroundings. It doesn’t matter how small the steps are, just keep taking them. One step a day, for as long as it takes. But don’t step backwards. You’re brave enough to keep going forward. There’s nothing there that God won’t walk with you through.
