Heel Tastic


When I first found Heel Tastic, I was so faithful to use it. It does exactly what the product label promises “watch dry cracked heels disappear”.  As the weeks, perhaps months have gone by the product has become more of a nick-nack sitting on the table beside my recliner. Needless to say the cracks have returned to my heels.

Picking up Heel Tastic this morning I felt the nudge of the Holy Spirit. God reminded me how often we, His children leave the Bible lying on the side table. We want change in our lives. We want the cracks to disappear. We want to look smooth and polished in the Lord. But we leave the very thing that will help the cracks disappear laying there unopened.

Heel Tastic’s label says Earth to Skin as through it is saying “hello do you hear me?” This morning I felt the Holy Spirit saying “God to Earth do you hear me? Pick up my word; apply it to your life. I will do what I have promised within my word.”

After the death of Moses, the Lord spoke to Joshua giving him a promise about His word. Joshua 1:8 “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.”   Did you catch the promise after the condition “if you do this then”?  Today God is still calling us to read His word and to meditate on it. I love the way the Message bible states this same verse “And don't for a minute let this Book of The Revelation be out of mind. Ponder and meditate on it day and night, making sure you practice everything written in it. Then you'll get where you're going; then you'll succeed.”

Goodbye ugly dry cracks, today I’m applying the WORD!

  2. We can never go wrong with God's Word; He sent forth his Word to heal us, cracks and all! I'm so thankful that he did.

    Thanks for stopping by; blessings and peace to you this week as you carry his kingdom witness with you wherever you go!

  3. This is a great analogy!! Anyone reading it can see & understand the importance of applying God's Word on a regular basis to avoid "soul cracks". I believe that this message has been preached to us as far back as the prophets & now the Holy Spirit is spreading the message again through you.
