I enjoy the ease of slip on sandals and flip-flops during the summertime. They are affordable, comfortable and come in a large variety of styles and colors. I have several pairs on the floor next to my bed and step into what is handy. Thus begins my drama.

Today, I attended a civic group luncheon with my husband.

After the meeting, we had several other errands to run. While in the car, I relaxed, kicked off my shoes and read a book.

After traveling for a while, I felt around with my toes in search of the shoes. When slipping them on, I realized I had left the house with mismatched footwear. I had a flip-flop on my left foot but a casual slip on for my right. Imagine my surprise and embarrassment! 

Society allows women of my age the eccentric mix of red hats and purple dresses. I think they’d shun my mismatched shoes… There is a difference; all shoes are not equal.

The Apostle Paul dealt with a serious difference in relationships.

“Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness (2 Corinthians 6:14 NKJ)?”
