Pedestrians

Our perception is everything because how we see “a thing” is in direct response to how we respond and furthermore proceed successfully.  If we are seeking God then we are pedestrians of faith – walking out our calling and purpose day-by-day.  We cannot skip from one day to another; we have to walk out this day in order to progress to the next. On the other hand a pedestrian is also interpreted as a person who is unimaginative and doesn't expect much out of life - except the usual mundane.  We can either choose to walk or choose to accept life as status quo – it is all about what we focus on.  I choose this day to walk out my faith no matter what.  When I decided that it was time for me to lose some weight, God just told me to start walking and I did and at first the weight loss wasn't noticeable but over time, I can tell for myself and do not need confirmation or adulation from others; so whether they inquire if I have lost a few pounds or not, I am confident in my own observation.  Don’t wait to see results before you start believing God – trust and get to moving on the path that he has set before you and he has promised that if you only walk with him, he will cause goodness and mercy to follow you all the days of your life.  When Adam was in the Garden of Eden with God, the scriptures says that he walked and talked with God in the cool of the day.  Enoch walked with God.  Elisha walked (followed) after Elijah.  When you take the time to walk with a person, you choose to want to get to know them and for them to know you.  And that is all that God wants to do; for you to know him and to learn his voice and character.  Relationships are built upon spending quality time with one another.
