Yes, Lord. That does make sense. How else would I get anywhere unless I put one foot in front of the other and took each step, one after another? But Lord, I want to rest. I so want to stop on the side of the road and sit down and rest a bit. Yes, Lord, I realize that once I sit down, I really don’t want to get back up as soon as I ought. Is my body just naturally lazy? Oh, I remember. It’s called the “flesh.”
Lord, can we slay the flesh today so I can take a break from this battle? Oh, yeah, we ARE slaying the flesh today…by taking one step after the other whether my heart or body really want to.
Lord, when will we be done slaying my flesh? I do so want to sit this one out for a little bit. Soon but when is soon, Lord? No flesh in heaven, huh? Can I rest then? Oh, I won’t need to rest in heaven because I won’t be taking my flesh there. Hmm.
Lord, can we get to heaven quickly please so I can stop this battle with my flesh? Will, yeah, Lord, huh… I know there are others here suffering, but…. Yes, Lord, I know they are suffering so much, much more than I have ever suffered. Okay, Lord, I understand. You have plans for me to ministry Your love to these people, Your children.
Lord, please help me to walk uprightly before You. To walk swiftly, wisely, righteously, lovingly and to serve You well as I serve Your people. Lord, let me be your instrument of grace and mercy to a dying people.
Lord, can we sing together while we are walking this walk? What song do You like?
