While in Chile for a Bible conference, I was resting at the hotel when a rugby match came on the television. Though i don't fully understand rugby, I enjoy it and admire the courage it takes to play such a dangerous sport.
During the match, one of the French players was injured and had to be taken to the sidelines. As the trainers attended to him, the camera showed a closeup of his shoes. With a black marker the player had written the words: "Habakkuk 3:19" and "Jesus is the way." Those expressions of faith and hope were a strong testimony of that young athlete's priorities and values.
The verse cited on that rugby player's shoes is not just one of heavenly hope and persevering faith. It is one of practical value--especially to an athlete dependent on speed for success. It says, "The LORD God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer's feet, and He will make my feet walk on my high hills."
In all of life, we need the strength and supply of our God. He alone can give us "feet" that are swift and strong. he alone can equip us for all of the uncertainties of life, for He alone is our strength. With paul, we can be assured: "My God shall supply all your need" (Phil. 4:19). __Bill Crowder

**************Today's Bible Reading _ Philippians 4:10-19***********
10 But I rejoiced in the
Lord greatly that now at last
your care for me has
flourished again; though
you surely did care, but you
lacked opportunity. 11 Not
that I speak in regard to
need, for I have learned in
whatever state I am, to be
content: 12 I know how to
be abased, and I know how
to abound. Everywhere and
in all things I have learned
both to be full and to be
hungry, both to abound and
to suffer need. 13 I can do
all things through Christ
who strengthens me.
14 Nevertheless you have
done well that you shared
in my distress. 15 Now you
Philippians know also that
in the beginning of the
gospel, when I departed
from Macedonia, no church
shared with me concerning
giving and receiving but
you only. 16 For even in
Thessalonica you sent aid
once and again for my
necessities. 17 Not that I
seek the gift, but I seek the
fruit that abounds to your
account. 18 Indeed I have all
and abound. I am full,
having received from
Epaphroditus the things
sent from you, a sweet
smelling aroma, and
acceptable sacrifice, well
pleasing to God. 19 And my
God shall supply all your
need according to His
riches in glory by Christ
Jesus.

In Philippians 4, Paul shared with the believers in Philippi his trust
in God during challenging circumstances. writing while under
arrest in Rome, Paul was filled with joy (v.10), content with God's
purposes (vv.11-12), and confident in God's care (v.13). He also
wanted them to know that he was grateful for the concern they had
shown for him in his hour of need (vv.14-19). __WEC
