Walk Humbly With Thy Lord

Walking with God

• Means practicing the presence of God in your daily affairs
• It means asking God for strength to face each new day
• It means turning to Him often during the day in prayer for yourself and for other people
• It means thanking Him at night for blessings you have received during the day.
