I Love My Birkenstock Shoes

Only those who have suffered chronic foot pain can appreciate the feel of broken-in Birkenstocks. I started wearing these just a few months ago when walking or jogging two miles resulted in burning pain in the ball of my foot and shooting pain in my toes. Even standing to preach the Sunday Communion led to a hobble. Today's trek over rough and steep terrain for over four hours and probably at least twelve miles on the Appalachian Trail was a blessing.
