I took this picture last week at the dog-walk. Just a lady (Whose name is Karen, I think) with her dog and that brown cat (Hunter [Because she catches mice as a gift for her owner] ).
I wish I had taken a video because this cat does something I had never seen before- Hunter follows her owner and the dog like a puppy dog. Hunter doesn’t need a leash to be walked, she does it naturally.
People walk too; not just the act of walking, but the way we live our lives. The apostle Paul said…
Romans 8 ( World English Bible )
1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.
3 For what the law couldn’t do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God did, sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh;
4 that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
6 For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace;
7 because the mind of the flesh is hostile towards God; for it is not subject to God’s law, neither indeed can it be.
8 Those who are in the flesh can’t please God.
9 But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any man doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.
10 If Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the spirit is alive because of righteousness.
11 But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
12 So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
13 For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.
Everything in life is cause and effect. What you do determines what you get. If we live an ungodly life, we will reap the effects of that lifestyle. Those who do this may not even physically see the consequences of their actions, but in the next life they will. Those who choose to follow God will encounter problems now, but in the after life they will reap eternal rewards.
Life is all about choices; I encourage you to follow Jesus to the best of your ability- you will be eternally glad you did!
