Walking With God

Micah 6:8 ESV
“He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God.”

Being a just and kind and merciful person should come naturally to us. Treat people right, be forgiving, and understand they are just human, we all make mistakes.

What happens when we walk with someone? Imagine that you and a close friend are enjoying a walk down a country lane. You are in close proximity. You talk, laugh, listen, and share your hearts. Your attention is focused on this person to the exclusion of almost everything else.

You notice the beauty around you or an occasional distraction, but only to point it out to your companion. You share it together. You are in harmony, and you both enjoy the peaceful camaraderie.

That is a great description of walking with God. Be at peace, at harmony, and enthrawled with His company. He is just as excited to be in your company, excited to hear from you, excited to share with you what will bring you lasting peace.

Prayer:
Father, You have told me how to walk among men, how to be hospitable, how to treat them right. You walked with Adam to establish a person relationship with him, and, You have told me to walk with You, to talk to You, to establish a personal relationship with You!
