What does the Lord require of you but… to walk humbly with your God?
Micah 6:8
If you want to walk with God, you need to get on the path where He is—the path of justice and mercy. God says to us: "If you get on that path, you will find me there."
God is the God of justice and mercy. This is what the cross is all about: God’s justice was poured out on Jesus so that God’s mercy could be poured out on us.
There is a story about a devoted monk from the tenth century. All his life, he longed for Christ to appear visibly to him. He prayed for this every day for years: "Lord. I want to see you. I have given my life to you. Won’t you appear to me once?”
Then it happened. The monk looked up and the Lord was standing in his cell. He was completely overcome. But at that same moment, the bell over the door of the monastery rang. The monk knew why. Every day beggars came to the monastery looking for bread. The monks had a roster for handing out bread, and that day it was his turn.
He faced an agonising decision. Should he ignore the beggar and stay with Christ? Or should he leave Christ and go to the beggar? What should he do? What would you have done?
The monk slowly rose from his knees, took the bread, and gave it to the beggar. Then he slowly walked back to his cell. To his absolute astonishment, he saw Christ waiting for him. He fell to his knees. Then Christ spoke: “If you had not gone, I would not have stayed.”
Do you want to walk with God and know the presence of Jesus? Go and find some way to serve a person in need, and you will find that His presence is with you.
