Recently my Pastor joined our LWML Hot August Nights potluck. He led us in an opening devotion and asked this question, “Which of you have beautiful feet?” We all looked at one another and said, “My feet are definitely not beautiful!” The devotion continued as he explained that the work that we support through the LWML gives us all beautiful feet, quoting the following: How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news of happiness, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God reigns” (Isaiah 52:7).

Knowing that the mission grants we fund and the places at which we volunteer are spreading the good news of salvation to not only other nations but also locally is beautiful — keeping our feet on the firm foundation of Christ.

So, look down at your feet knowing they are indeed beautiful. Continue sharing the happiness of knowing Christ and bringing the news of salvation to others. Fill those Mite Boxes. Your God reigns!
