The rhythm of God
Here are some thoughts that came on an early morning walk with God while the sun rose…
The rhythm of God. Keep in step with the rhythm of God, walk with Him and flow with Him, step by step by step, breath by breath, moment by moment. Appreciate the moments… the light on the green leaves as the day awakens, the sound of the birds singing, the magical colours reflecting on the peaceful waters, the reflection of the sky, the warmth of the rising sun, the people walking by, each with their own peculiar ways, distinctive things, unique only to themselves, individually crafted by the Creator.
As I climbed the hill and pondered upon the distance I had walked another revelation came to my mind…
Step by step, one at a time and you’ll get there. Don’t look at the destination and see how far you have to go, that can be discouraging, just walk in the rhythm of God, the rhythm of life, live in the ‘now’. It brought to mind the words of Jesus, “Don’t worry about tomorrow”. We don’t need to have it all figured out and know all that lies ahead… Faith, trust and putting our feet forward one step at a time.
‘What about being transported in the Spirit?’ flashed through my mind… God can do that if He wants, but it’s His work by His Spirit and it’s rarely the way we reach our destination. Mostly it’s a walk and the journey is rich, not always pleasing but always something to learn, absorb into our spirits, meditate on and communicate our meditations to God.
It’s a prayer walk, life is like a prayer walk, no wonder Paul said ‘pray continually’… always online with our Maker, walking in step with the Lover of our souls who came to earth to walk among us, by our side. What a wonderful journey this is and what a glorious destination, beyond my comprehension.
