BACKPACKING TODDLERS SUBSCRIBE
PARABLE:
"Backpacking
through the mountain" had a different meaning for us, some years ago.
I'd backpack whichever was the baby at the time. My husband would
backpack youngest toddler. The others were stuck with using their own
feet... though my hubby often had mercy & FRONT-packed the youngest
toddler & BACK-packed next-to-youngest... So sorry I don't have a
photo of that!! My mental picture doesn't match that famous photo of Jesus carrying someone along the sandy beach shore.
We have a Father God who walks WITH us
through the scary snake-occupied Valleys... AND
up the rock filled mountains. Psalm 23.
What does LORD God say ?? "WHOLLY follow the LORD. TRUST Him.

of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil; for
THOU are with me!
Numbers 32.... The VALLEY Click HERE for Link
6 And Moses said to the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben: “... 7 Now why will you discourage the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the LORD has given them? 8 Thus your fathers did when I sent them away from Kadesh Barnea to see the land. 9 For when they went up to the Valley of Eshcol and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, so that they did not go into the land which the LORD had given them. 10 So the LORD’s anger was aroused on that day, and He swore an oath, saying, 11 ‘Surely none of the men who came up from Egypt, from twenty years old and above, shall see the land of which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, because they have not wholly followed Me, 12 except Caleb ... and Joshua the son of Nun, for they have wholly followed the LORD.’
Deuteronomy 2: 13-14

13 “ ‘Now rise and cross over the Valley of the Zered.’ So we crossed over the Valley of the Zered. 14 And the time we took to come from Kadesh Barnea until we crossed over the Valley of the Zered was thirty-eight years, until all the generation of the men of war was consumed from the midst of the camp, just as the LORD had sworn to them.

SO WHAT ??
...... Like for many people: It's been a rough few months, more to
come. Caught myself wishing this AM that I didn't have to use my own
feet walking thru life. But I have... we have... even better: A Loving
God who not only lets us enjoy winning over obstacles, but gives
encouraging words-- "You can DO this With Me"! We have a Father God who walks WITH us
through the scary snake-occupied Valleys... AND
up the rock filled mountains. Psalm 23.
