Watch Your Step

“…so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience; joyously giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in Light.” Colossians 1:10-12

I pray that I would walk in a manner that is pleasing to my Heavenly Father today and that I would be fruitful and continually seeking His face, His wisdom and His power in all I undertake. In the midst of all the hustle and bustle I pray that I would remain teachable, steadfast and patient. I find so many people are down and disheartened during the holidays because it is such a busy time and there are so many distractions; hearts are pulled in so many directions. I pray that He would cultivate a spirit of joy and thankfulness in me so that I might serve as an example to others as one who truly shares in the inheritance of the saints no matter what goes on in the world around me.

Whether we realize it or not people are watching the way we walk, they are taking notice of the fruit we produce and whether or not God’s power is at work in our lives. It’s especially important during the Christmas season that Christians walk in a manner that pleases Him. Do you walk like one who shares in the inheritance of the saints?
