Deuteronomy 29:5. “And I have led you forty years in the wilderness: your clothes have not waxen old upon you, and thy shoe is not waxen old upon thy foot.” NEW CLOTHES… NEW SHOES. “I’ve had these clothes for forty years – And they’re still as good as new. There’s been no unraveling or wearing out – And look – these aren’t new shoes – But for some secret reason only God knows – He has made sure that all we wear – Whether shoes or these new looking clothes, We won’t need another pair.
These clothes God gave me many years ago Are garments of righteousness He has made To wear on my journey to my new heavenly abode. The hands that provided, and to me this garment gave Were nailed to the cross in order that I might go Through this life with feet shod with the Gospel of peace – That others on life’s journey also can know – The blessings of God’s redeeming grace.
For all this time He has been meeting my every need, Daily food comes from His bounteous supply. The clothes He gave do not wear out or the shoes on my feet – Spiritual food I eat, and the supply of water does not run dry So, I have no need to worry about simple things – My Lord completely takes good care of them Trusting Him for these, has taught me when big things rise – I don’t have to fret; I just leave them all to Him.
“O God of bountiful supply: how thoughtful it was of Thee to meet the needs of those people with the little things as well as the big things. We have experience that too Father, even supplying my need of medicine by a motel clerk giving us a free sample pack. I am still amazed at the way You had all that arranged long before we got to Boise. Now here in this foreign country again we are being supplied with daily food and raiment. I thank you sincerely and offer praise for Thy goodness, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
