A Riverwalk

There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High. Psalm 46:4 KJV

Last Summer my wife and I went for a walk along a small river near our home in Florida. We were delighted by a rare afternoon without thunderstorms during our rainy season . Though our walks are a bit shorter now that we have grown older, they are still the best times for us to talk and share special time together. Walking along quietly with the Lord is no different. He treasures the time we spend with Him but we must always tell Him the truth.

When we are sorry for something we must confess it to Him, and remember that He already knows! When we have a needs; that we can’t work out on our own we only have to ask and He has promised to answer. He is our Savior and Lord; but He has also offered to be our closest friend. He offers to walk by our side and listen to what we has to say on quiet afternoons and busy mornings; during sleepless nights and when we sit down to rest. He is near us at every moment and eagerly waiting to walk with us with us along the banks of the River of Life.

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us  Hebrews 12:1

As a child holding on to Daddy’s hand we can hold on to God trusting that it is His own mind that has laid out the course for us to run!
