Exploring Scripture with an eye to what it takes to trust in
God with a modern-day faith, popular women’s conference speaker Thelma Wells
encourages readers to “Put on Your Shoes, Step Out, and Get Ready to Win!” in God,
I’m Ready to Walk in Faith. Known as “Mama T,” Wells shares her
less-than-perfect past and demonstrates how she has learned to trust in the
Lord.
Using a shoe metaphor, her story starts with baby shoes,
which she uses to represent the faith formation of her early years. Tying her
personal story to Scripture, she observes that Hannah trusted God enough to
give up her mothering role so her son could honor God in temple service. But,
during successful times, Wells wears her “Bling Bling” shoes.
Similarly, Esther’s life demonstrates how faith can bring victory in the
bleakest of circumstances.
Whether in baby shoes or combat boots, Wells
encourages readers to walk in faith, discerning God’s will through personal Bible
study and prayer. In God, I’m Ready to Walk in Faith, she offers a rich
perspective on faith, including faith that overcomes fear, faith that discerns
God’s plan and faith that serves as a mighty example.
