Walk God-ward!

Posted on June 10, 2021June 10, 2021 by Fr. Jos+

To live spiritually, we seek to breathe with the Spirit’s rhythm and move in a God-ward direction on the long walk of faith. Fr. Hendry Nouwen.

We wake up in the morning and move towards something better than yesterday. If not, we have a problem. The problem for a lot of people is to live in the past and thus going backward. Life is to live forward, not backward. Life is to look towards something ahead than something behind.

It is only possible for us to live forward if we take in the life of the Spirit of God who has the knowledge of the future. When we breathe God into us, our rhythm changes and our direction takes a positive dimension. Our forward movement is propelled by our God-ward walking.. It is that which gives us a positive outlook of the world to realize that today is far better than yesterday and tomorrow will be even better. What matters is to be aware that everyday we are waking up into a new and better world God has made.

True Religion

What does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? - Micah 6: 8 (The New Revised Standard Version)

Right Worship

Your worship must engage your spirit in the pursuit of truth. That's the kind of people the Father is out looking for: those who are simply and honestly themselves before him in their worship. - John 4: 24 (The Message Bible)

Living Faith

What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but do not have works?... If a brother or sister is naked and lacks daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and eat your fill,” and yet you do not supply their bodily needs, what is the good of that? - James 2: 14-16 (NRSV)
