Big Monster Feet 

We had just been there earlier in the day, and I never noticed any monster clues. It did, though, look like a claw foot of a giant monster for sure, and a photo doesn't lie. Does it?

Where clay and rocky mountain riverbanks slide down to the water, someone with an active imagination might see monster things. I recall my dad looking at cloud formations, and pointing out animals, faces, and other images. He was creative and inventive with no doubt a good imagination. That was great in the daytime, but at night or in dim light it wasn't so terrific to see monsters in the crack of the closet door, coats on hangers and moving shadows. Nope, I was definitely not interested in seeing any monster feet.

Sometimes the enemy of our soul taunts us with scary monster tactics. The what-ifs are right up there, along with any number of fear tactics- none of which are real.

The reality is GOD. He's with us, He takes care of us, He watches over us, He saves us, and He will never ever leave us. He never takes a cat-nap, tunes out, or turns away.*

With all of that, any big monster feet that come after us can forget it and turn tail and run.

That's good news.

 
* Psalm 121
1I lift up my eyes to the mountains-where does my help come from?
2My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
3He will not let your foot slip-he who watches over you will not slumber;
4indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
5The Lord watches over you-the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
6the sun will not harm you by day,nor the moon by night.
7The Lord will keep you from all harm-he will watch over your life;
8the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.
