The Daily Habit of a Funny Way of Walking

I have developed the daily habit of an unusual way of walking. It isn’t very popular and looks rather odd, but it sure improves my life and fills me with peace and joy. Let me tell you about it.

Here’s a quote from a man named Lo Alaman: “I believe the blessing that God is inviting us to is that our stories would begin to look more like His.” (For that to happen we need to get in step with the Spirit. If you keep in step with the times, you’ll spend your time staying out of step with God’s Spirit.)

Let God’s Spirit
Set your pace
So His grace
Can lead you
To the place
He wants you to be.

Every Spirit-led step that you take leads you closer to God. If you are seeking to follow and obey the risen Jesus, step it up! If not, step up to the plate so you can “taste and see that the Lord is good”! Step back from your desires and plans so you can step forward in God’s Spirit.

When people walk in the Spirit, they are like a tree planted by streams of water. There’s a spring in their step. Christ’s rivers of living water overflow from within them.

When people offend you and step on your toes, step up in God’s Spirit to bless them and show them His kindness. Step back from your pride and you’ll step forward in God’s Spirit. Watch for Christ’s steps and follow them!

A Spirit-led journey begins with a single Spirit-led step. Take a first step today. To walk in the Spirit, take one Spirit-led step after another, day after day, until you grow from a Spirit-led-toddler into a Spirit-led-mountain-climber.

You learn to take Spirit-led steps by stepping out to obey the promptings of God’s Spirit. Count the steps that truly count. How many Spirit-led steps will you take today?

(Refuse to stay stuck in box steps when God is calling you to walk in the Spirit. Remember that Jesus will be working in and through you every Spirit-led step of the way!)

Let your shoes
Be led by the Spirit.
Begin to choose
To follow God’s
Inner cues.

It’s time for Christians to daily walk the Sunday Bible talk. We must do more than just sit through sermon after sermon and ignore what was said.

Step aside
From your pride
And get in stride
With God’s Spirit.

When Jesus is real in someone’s heart, their words and their life demonstrate that they believe that He’s present with them 24/7/365. I didn’t believe Jesus was real until He started working in my life over and over and over again!

Jesus has a question for people around the world today. Will you set aside your opinions, feelings, and desires and follow Me instead? If your country needs a savior (and they all do), look to the risen Jesus, Himself, not to any other person.

When I walk in the Spirit, I respect people too much to call them names or insult their intelligence just because they disagree with me. If you don’t respect people’s right to disagree with you (without you insulting them), perhaps you aren’t very secure in your beliefs and opinions. Begin to walk in the Spirit and kindness will grow in your heart.

People used to
Hear each other out.
Now they go about
Insulting the people
Who disagree with them.

The British rock band, The Struts, sings:

“Don’t wanna live as an untold story
Rather go out in a blaze of glory.”

The way to do that is to humbly walk in God’s Spirit, day and night.
