You know walking has been around a long time. Sometimes we walk in and sometimes we walk out.
I have always had an imagination that can run with tthe ball. So when I hear something or read something it is very real.
This morning in walking with Mark we were discussing all the things that just seem to spring into our minds. One thought that I keep playing over and over is Moses and the Exodus through the sea. Hollywood's rendition is probably pretty good with Charleton Heston watching as the waters part.
My thoughts run to the idea of how do you get a million plus people even walking in the same direction. Does it take a sword weilding, chariot riding army to get everyone to take a step back and turn around in a brisk walk?
I can picture myself there as a problem solver. "Ok folks everyone over this way, less rocks more even terrain!" When I looked up Exodus and reread it some different things stuck out. God told them to sort of turn around and camp where Pharoah could really see them. Now I am not sure that would have been my strategy! Again I can picture myself out in the water saying "Hey we can make it. It's not too deep! The currents not too fast!" As optimistic as I am, they needed a miracle.
So here are all these people standing by the water the chariots are coming and I am sure there were some worried brows. Then the waters part and they walk over on DRY ground. Probably the easiest walking surface these people had ever been on. So they take a 15 minute walk, the army follows and gets washed away.
Now that was easy and it was a miracle. So go have yourself a miracle. Take a walk.
Till the mornin,
Keep walkin!
