‘Walk Humbly’

Walk in Wisdom

Welcome to Week 5!

This week, I invite you to read a reflection on what it means to ‘walk humbly, walk in wisdom’. 

How do you walk? How do you carry yourself as you move about the world? Do you have swagger? Do you hold your head high? Are you on a mission? Is your gait timid and nervous like Gideon or confident and bold like Deborah?

Do you walk in peace and kindness?

Or do you walk in such a way to look out for number one?

However you walk; whether you limp a little or have a long stride, or whether you're quick or a little on the slow side, do it humbly. How you walk influences what you see, learn and hear and impacts how you approach people and situations. So take care to notice.

It is with humility that we walk.

When we follow God, that’s what we’re doing, we’re following. We’re not striding out in front saying that we know better or we can see more clearly.

We surrender not our individuality or initiative, but our pride that blinds us and trips us up. The kind of pride that would keep us from being just and loving mercy. The kind of pride that would blind our faith.

Humility IS strength. It gives room for wisdom to grow, it opens up opportunities for you to learn and It helps you to stand boldly and confidently after you’ve fallen down and asked for a hand up.

Humility opens you up to others, heightening your awareness of those around you and how we all need each other. It's OK to need and to be needed.

God created us for relationship. And community makes us strong.

Walk humbly with God. Follow him. Walk close enough so that his ways, truth, love and grace cover you from head to toe.

Do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God.
