Enoch and Kenny


This is a truth we need to remember
"Enoch walked with God" Genesis 5:24
The apostle Paul reminds us in many of his epistles to walk in the Spirit.
Our Wednesday Bible study is digging into Colossians and we were discussing verse 6 of chapter 2. The author, Kathleen Nielson writes, " The Greek verb here is literally 'to walk': the verse tells us to 'walk in him'."
Kim, a woman who loves to walk shared some thoughts the Holy Spirit gave her about this verse. When we walk, we have a purpose, we have a pace, we follow a path, there is a progression, a pattern and often a partner. Someone else added, "and we have to perservere!"
It reminded me of my father, Kenny, and his advice to each of us as we were growing up; "Hold tightly to Jesus' hand."
"For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you."
Isaiah 41:13
