I opted not to buy myself souvenirs during this journey. God still made sure I had something to take, keep, and remember from each month I've spent with Him. I researched the symbolic (spiritual & psychological) meanings of my gifts (Each item itself, colors, materials etc.) I also had guidance from above in finding the purpose for each items placement in my life at the time it was placed.
The pink slippers were given to me by an older woman (Grandma Ziza.) She became pregnant young, was never married, and is living alone. She has a huge heart and entertains the missionaries that come through her town. Her heart for God is beautiful. However, it scared me to think I was looking at my future … struggling with this.
METAPHORIC MEANING
SLIPPER – You are feeling sluggish and/or insecure. You feel that you do not have a strong foothold in some situation. Alternatively, slippers represent domesticity, ease, comfort, and/or relaxation. This may mean that you need to relax. Or you are relaxing too much and are being lazy.
LACE – points to your sensuality and femininity. Alternatively, it denotes tradition and old fashioned ideals. Perhaps you are being overly practical in some area of your life. A pattern in your life keeps repeating itself. However, there will now be a breakthrough in regards to the old habit. The urge to turn away in denial is overwhelming. Have courage be open to new ideas and concepts.
PINK – represents love, joy, sweetness, happiness, affection and kindness. Being in love or healing through love is also implied with this color. Alternatively, the color implies immaturity or weakness, especially when it comes to love.
Pink Slipper – Consider also the notion of getting "pink slipped"…. LOL … okay, not funny! Seriously now …
SCRIPTURE
How beautiful your sandaled feet, O prince's daughter! Your graceful legs are like jewels, the work of an artist's hands. (Song of Solomon 7:1)
PESONAL MEANING
SLIPPER – I did feel insecure and unsure going into this month. I was open but didnt know for what. Some days I had a lot of energy and excitement and somedays I felt tired, lazy, and uninterested. when I allowed Him to God filled my body with energy and I worked and played hard. Also on these God days he would fill my mind with thoughts of my future with Him (plans)
LACE- sensuality and femininity, tradition and old fashioned ideals, you are being overly practical in some area of your life. I had my heart set on traditional ideas. Plans that would make me just like everyone else. A pattern in your life keeps repeating itself. – I keep chasing after my plans for my heart and future and every time it ends the same, doesnt'twork out. there will now be a breakthrough – Have courage be open to new ideas and concepts. – God spoke clearly what his plans are and though some of it was hard to accept …. i trust Him and I am excited for the path before me!
PINK- Ultimately, I need healing and strenthening in my Love for God … My Love for Him is still very weak and immature compared to where I am going with Him. His love is awesome and never fails … WOW!
