Be Still . . .

All the nations may walk in the name of their gods, but we will walk in the name of the Lord our God for ever and ever.
(Micah 4:5 (NIV))
Does walking with the Lord our God give you joy?
There are so many things in this world that people are joyful for. Some find great joy in their possessions. Others find it in their work. Still, others find it in a new love relationship. I will be honest and say that some of these things that bring joy to people can be very uplifting. Just think about the knowledge of a job well done, and who can overlook the joy of looking into the eyes of a newborn child for the first time.
When someone is joyful, it is said that they have a bounce in their step. Everything about them exudes the joy that they feel on the inside.
Think about that for a moment!
If we can be joyful and have a bounce in our step from things that are fleeting, how much more joyful and how much bigger of a bounce should we have in our step because we walk with God? We should be so filled with joy that we do more than bounce. We should float. We should glow. We should radiate the joy that comes only from knowing Jesus Christ as our personal Lord and Savior!
We should be so joyful that nothing of this world can steal our joy or our bounce!
I have only one question to ask of each of us.
Does your step have a Godly bounce?
