Walking With God

One beautiful thing that was lost when Adam and Eve sinned was their daily walks with God in "the cool of the day". I imagine these walks to be both times of laughter and delight, as well as questions to God and words of instruction and their life purpose from Him. These were delightful relational times with the God who created and loved and provided for them. All that was lost because of sin, until Jesus burst upon human history and began to once again take walks with His disciples, bringing God near man once again. After Jesus' sacrificial death, resurrection and ascension back to His throne in heaven, He gave the promise of the Holy Spirit to not only walk beside us, but to live in us who have trusted by faith in the grace of God to forgive sins, bought for us by the person and work of Jesus Christ. Galatians 5:16 "Walk by the Spirit and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh" takes on new relational meaning in light of what was lost because of sin.
