Learning to Walk

“Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did.”  I John 2:6

 Wow!  What a tall order!  Walking as Jesus did.  He walked every step in faith.  He walked every step in love.  He walked to the hurting, the rejected, the sick, and the down and out.  He brought healing, acceptance and restoration.

Jesus walked in wisdom.  He walked with an eye to pleasing the Father.  He walked the path to Calvary.  And Bless God, he walked the path to pay the price for our sin, to purchase our redemption and to build for us a home in heaven.

Jesus walked where he was hated, rejected, taunted, set up and crucified.  He walked where no man would want to go.  He walked where no man had the power to go.

Jesus is our great example in all things.  Let us endeavor to walk as he did, showing love, goodness and compassion to a hurting world.  Let our feet be the ones that bring good news.

Dear Lord, I am speechless at the thought of all you have done.  Help me to walk as you did, in all sincerity and with Kingdom purpose. In Jesus’ Name.  Amen.
