It is said that walking an extra 20 minutes each day will burn off 7 pounds of body fat per year. Also, burning off one plain M&M candy would require you to walk the full length of a football field – now that’s some serious walking for the price of eating one little M&M! I honestly try to remember that when I occasionally grab a handful of M&M’s, however it’s a work in progress – the chocolate covered peanuts win most times. On a more positive note, walking, as many health experts will tell you, improves the efficiency of your heart and lungs, raises your metabolism so you can burn calories faster, helps control your appetite, and increases your energy among many other benefits. When one walks in the spiritual sense, it implies we are in a continual mode of moving and maturing. It is to follow a certain course of life or to conduct oneself in a consistent way. Walking improves our spiritual agility, helps eliminates the excess weight, decrease our appetite for the things of this world, and increases the power to resist anything that interferes with our relationship with and passion for God.
Allow these following verses to encourage how you walk out your life in God:
Walk in the newness of life (Romans 6:4)
Walk in love (Ephesians 5:2)
Walk in truth (3 John 1:4)
Walk in obedience (Deuteronomy 5:33)
Walk in the Spirit (Galatians 5:16)
Walk in Faith (2 Corinthians 5:7)
Walk in Holiness (1 peter 1:16)
Living
RESTORED,
