Keep Walking

We talked a lot about being centered--about being so thoroughly soaked in His presence in our personal, secret, day-to-day lives, that are able to do all that He asks of us any given day.

At the same time, I was trying to find a song to use in a worship set last week that spoke of the Holy Spirit quenching our thirst. Short of "All Who Are Thirsty" (which I'd played the week before and didn't want to repeat), I couldn't come up with anything. So, in looking at spiritual formation as a well to which we turn for our sole sustenance, this is my attempt at expressing this idea in song.

Additionally, something @erinstinson in the Spiritual Formation discussion (week 4) of the Essentials in Worship Values course stuck out to me. She spoke of walking in a state of perfection and having arrived. This set me thinking about the journey our "walk" with Christ is. Our resolve must be to continue on in the journey and keep walking--and enjoy the journey. "You get a feeling when you look back on life that that's all God really wants from us, to live inside a body he made and enjoy the story and bond with us through the experience."(1)
