Walking Well
How do we walk the path of life? Do we walk according to our bodily desires, or do we walk according to the Spirit of God?
The Apostle Paul encouraged the church in Galatia saying, “But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.” (Galatians 5:16, ESV).
If we are walking one way, we cannot simultaneously walk in a different direction. In the same manner, we cannot walk in the ways of our sinful and fleshly desires and walk by the Spirit of God.
If we are to be close followers of Jesus, we must walk well by the Spirit of God.
May we walk the pathway of life in a manner worthy of God as we walk by the Spirit of God.
A Collect for Endurance: “Almighty God, whose most dear Son went not up to joy but first he suffered pain, and entered not into glory before he was crucified: Mercifully grant that we, walking in the way of the Cross, may find it none other than the way of life and peace; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
