Prayer Walking
This week I had my regular “mini spiritual-retreat” at the gardens. I arrived armed with my picnic blanket fully intending to sit, read the scriptures, reflect and pray, but I found myself unable to settle on a good spot to stop. So I kept on walking. As I walked I decided to pray. “Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.”
I repeated the prayer in whole. I also “prayed through” each part of the prayer. “Lord” – Acknowledging his royal position I submitted to God’s authority over me. “Jesus Christ” – I recalled the power in the name of Jesus and couldn’t help but sing a few or our songs about His name. So I continued to walk and pray. And when I got to “me a sinner” I confessed. I reviewed my last few days. Acknowledged weaknesses. Attitudes. Actions. Ungodly desires.
By the time I had finished walking through the prayer it was easy to find a spot on the grass, lay out my blanket and read the scriptures and reflect.
Why don’t you try prayer walking? I found it very refreshing and restoring. It’s good for your health – spiritually and physically.
