Walking with God

‘What does God want of us?’ asked the prophet Micah; a question that has echoed throughout the generations.

Walking with God features 40 readings to help us walk with God on the road of life.

Life is often thought of in terms of a journey or a road that must be travelled. When we talk about our lives we sometimes say, without thinking, that we ‘encountered obstacles’, ‘arrived at a crossroads’, ‘got bogged down’ or ‘faced an uphill struggle’. We all talk about issues in our lives in terms of ‘finding our way’.

Yet how to walk the way of life presents dilemmas. For most of us it is more of an obstacle course than a straight path. Today, when faced with the demands of life, many of us suffer from the Christopher Columbus syndrome. Columbus set off and didn’t know where he was going. When he got there he didn’t know where he was. When he got back he didn’t know where he had been. The only real novelty about Columbus is that he stumbled across the New World and became famous and influential – most people are not so fortunate!

These daily readings are about walking the way of life. This is a practical guide about how to walk the way and how to walk it with God.
