This morning was Take the City Walk. Organized by Touch Community Services.
FCBC was there, but I had to go under school.
The walk was soo tiring. 5 super long kilometres.
Walking from the Padang to around Lau Pa Sat & back.
20000-30000 people walking 5 km to earn $600 000. (typed wrongly at first)
$600 000 divide by 20 000 people = $30
Every 1 km I walked, I contributed $6 to the needy :)
It was the first time I attended this kind of charity walk.
And somehow, it reminded me of our walk with God.
At the start of the walk, we feel rather excited. Some reluctant, some excited.
As we walk, gradually we feel tired and weak.
At times we have to stop to wait for the people around us, and we would also have to turn left and right.
We complain as we walk.
At one point, we have to turn back (at Lau Pa Sat, to walk back to the Padang)
At the end of the walk, we feel really tired, but very accomplished.
SO.
At the start of our walk with God, we feel excited. Wanting to know more about God and loving Him daily.
However as time goes by, we start to feel weak, spiritually weak.
At times we would stop, to pray and help & save the people around us.
Our spiritual walk also consists of many downfalls and turns to test our faith.
We complain as we walk. Satan would distract us from our walk with God, sinning alot.
And if we do get distracted, we would just ignore God and walk away.
At a point, some of us would turn back to God. Kneeling before God, repenting of our sins and continuing our spiritual walk.
At the end, would be our greatest moment. Seeing our Father in Heaven.
