An autumn walk

Now that both children are at school and nursery, Friday mornings have become my quiet time. A couple of weeks ago I took some time out from the to-do list and went for a walk in the lovely Victoria Park.

As I walked the treasures from God's word that I had been reading that week were in my mind, and I found myself in a bit of a conversation with him. It felt like going for a walk with Jesus.

It made me long for Heaven, and to imagine what it will be like when we can really walk with him.

Then, studying the Bible with my friends this week, this verse really struck me:

Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?” (Genesis 3)


God used to walk in the garden with Adam and Eve. And even after they had disobeyed, He came looking for them.

We were made to walk and talk with Him.

We lost that privilege. But Jesus got it back for us.
