One of my favorite days of the year; it is a great reminder for us (who have a superfluous pairs of shoes & yes, I am talking to myself as well as to you) of those who have nothing. As impacting as one day can be, my friends & I decided to go a week because we firmly believe (especially for ourselves) that it should be much longer. I believe going a week will answer the question, "What does it really, truly feel like?" Even though I don't believe I can ever fathom what it would be like to not own a pair of shoes, I still believe it will be a humbling experience. Seriously, already this morning I subconsciously was going to put on my shoes. It's like it became a habit, I did it without ever thinking of others or giving thanks to God for shoes. I desire for God to teach me this week that every time I put on my shoes, I do it in remembrance of & pray for those who can't. I hope & pray you take part in this day.
