I've found recently that God wants to walk with me. Many times as we go through life we are under the impression that we are burdening God when we talk to him or ask him for things. The truth is that He wants to spend time with us. He wants to give us the desires of our hearts, but He also wants to give us the things that we need. Those things, sometimes, are not neccesarily what we want at the time. Walking with God is in some ways like walking on this earth. We have to learn how to walk with Him. And we all know that when we learn how to walk we often fall. So why when we fall in our walk with God do we want to give up walking with him instead of getting up and trying again? Does a baby just fall and decide they are never going to walk so they may as well not even try? No! No matter who sees them fall or whether or not it hurt, they know that eventually they can walk! They follow the example of their parents walking and eventually are able. We too must keep getting up and following the example of Jesus in His walk with the Father. Keep going no matter if someone sees us fall or how much it hurt. We are all going to fall. We are all going to walk down difficult paths, but we also have a father there with us all the time that wants to help us up and wipe us off when we fall.
