TAKE A WALK
Today's reading: Genesis 12-15
"...the Lord said to Abram,..Take a walk in every direction and explore the new possessions I am giving you." Genesis 13:14-17 NLT
I can just imagine Abram taking that walk.
With every step I can see him look up into the sky and ask, 'This is mine, too?'
From atop every hill he would pray, 'This, too, Lord?'
I can see him stop every few miles and question, 'And here?'
In every shadowed valley, beside every stream, with the winds whipping his hair and robe in the high places, where he could see for miles and miles, where he could only see the rock formations before him, he asked--just to make sure.
What would you have done?
How would you have reacted to the gift of this land?
When would it fully sink in, that all you could see was being given to you?
My prayer for myself, and for you--that it will become very real in our hearts today. That we will know victory is ours. That we will believe all things are possible. That we will see all He has already accomplished and signed over to us in deed and trust. That we will accept the blessings laid out before us.
Take a walk.
Look at all He has given you!
