| Dear Young Christian: |
| Here is a little meditation someone shared with me recently: |
| “And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before Me” (Genesis 17:1). |
| Abram had answered God’s call, and by faith had left everything to follow His leading. We read, “By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went” (Hebrews 11:8). Now he is encouraged to walk before the Lord. In simple language, to walk before the Lord is to live in the conscious sense of His presence every day of your life. |
| Years later, Abraham could affirm to his servant Eliezer, “The Lord, before whom I walk” (Genesis 24:40). What a consistent testimony this man of faith had. Will you be able to say that at the end of your life? Will you be able to look back with confidence and say, “I’ve walked before the Lord?” |
