There are times I wish I could have walked along with Jesus as He taught the Disciples. That would be a stroll well worth taking. However, given that I don't speak or understand Aramaic...
Some of the best conversations I have had was on a stroll. I remember the talks I had with my Grampa as we walked to his favorite fishing hole. I remember many of the talks I had with my buddies while we were on patrol. Some of the most interesting things when we walk together.
I remember trying to read a book while walking on a treadmill once. Only once, for two reasons: When I walk, I like to actually GO somewhere. I discovered that I am NOT coordinated enough to read and walk at the same time. I also learned that treadmills will leave road rash just like falling on concrete. Sorry, my mind wandered for a moment.
God brought to mind that Paul and Barnabas walked together until they had a disagreement over bringing John Mark, then they had an argument so sharp that they went their own separate ways. Scripture tells us over and over that we are to walk in the Spirit, walk with God, walk with one another...but when we walk we must be agreement. Here's the point of all this: When we walk with God, we learn so much and we learn that we want to walk with Him more and more!
