Walking with God.

SOMETIMES we read in the Bible of walking before God, as when he said to Abram, “Walk before me, and be thou perfect.” Gen. 17 : 1. Sometimes we read of walking after God, as when Moses said to the Israelites, “Ye shall walk after the Lord your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.” Deut. 13 : 4. But of Enoch and Noah it is said that they walked with God. To walk before reminds us of a child, running and playing in the presence of a father, and conscious of perfect security because he is near and behind. To walk after is becoming to a servant; but to walk with, indicates fellowship and friendship.—The Truth.
