Today Reminder - 05 March 2012 (Walkie-Talkie)

My prayer for you for today is that you will take your troubles to God and not to the world, in Jesus Name.

Ephesians 3:12
Because of Christ and our faith in Him, we can now come boldly and confidently into God's presence.

Walkie-Talkie. Before the world domination of the cell phone there was two way radios, we called these hand held devices “Walkie-Talkie’s”. This was the first wireless communication instrument and quite large to carry around, almost like the first cell phones.  The amazing thing about this was the result, you could talk to someone over a distance and continued in your conversation even though you could not see them. It is not the device that made me think this morning, but the name “Walkie-Talkie”, meaning walking and talking. I believe that our relationship with God should be one of walking and talking. Jesus came and He broke the walls and laws that kept us from God’s presence and gave us direct access to Him. You can enter God’s presence at any given time and you can share you happiness or your sadness with Him.

Our relationship with God is to me like a journey, a long distance that we will travel. Our lives are not perfect, but each day we travel with God brings us so much closer to God’s picture of us. This journey that we are on is our life and each new day brings forth a new area and new hurdle that we must overcome. Some of these obstacles on our journey are not easily crossed but take’s time to get over. The important thing is: Are you just walking, or are you walking and talking? Take time in your day and talk to God, share you experiences and difficulties, but also share you victories and successes. God is our Father and He shares in all our experiences, not only the bad ones but also the good ones. As you face each obstacle God is teaching you and empowering you to face the next, moulding you into a formidable force that will not be shaken as you stand with Him.

I am seeing two sets of footprints on what seems to be your life, there are never only one set, but always two. When you walk and talk to God, your mountains will be become footpaths and your life will be a breeze of hope. 

Have a great day dear friend of Jesus.

Cheers
