Shoes, however, do represent a very high level of G-dly service as witnessed by the dynamic that “The final action is the first in thought,” And as King Solomon relates Hashem’s praise of the Jewish people in the “Song of Songs”, “How beautiful are your feet in your shoes!” The service represented by shoes, in fact, is so sublime they are mentioned in the prophecy that Moshiach, “will strike the river with his hand and it will split into seven streams, and we will walk through in our shoes!” A person could mistakenly think it is enough for him to put his head, his intellect, and thought, and even the majority of his body in proper order.
