Hebrews 11

So in ponderance (yes, that is a word in my world) of faith, aliens and strangers in this world, what "home" really is and what it really means to "give it all up" I realized a few random things.
Enoch walked with God, apparently he didnt just live/exist, and I can simply deduce that he lived by faith, just as Noah, Abraham, Joseph, Paul, and a few others. Live by faith? Taking each step in light of the fact that God holds the floor beneath your feet and not being able to truly see an inch in front of you; guided by His almighty hand. "Oh Lord you have searched me and you know me, you know when I sit and when I rise, you percieve my thoughts from afar. You decern my going out and lying down, you are familiar with all my ways. You hem me in behind and before, you have laid your hand upon me...all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be..." Psalm 139. So, he knows "descerns" our every move and holds our future since He has known it since before the world began.
This world is not our home. We are called to be strangers. The Christian walk never seems to be "cooshy" as the world would look at it, and if we settle down too much or get too comfy, could that be wrong? Are we to live willing to move or act at the the drop of a hat if God asks us to? Whether it be small or big, shouldnt we be willing to do whatever He asks? Not that God needs our help or anything, but I would like to be part of what He is doing, dont you? Like a father doesnt need the help of his small child but he (with pleasure) takes the childs willingness and lets him/her be part of what he is doing (I have an incredible earthly father who was and still is a marvelous example of this).
So back to where I started, walking with God. Fellowship with Him, time, stillness, learning, growing, loving. What did Joseph do? Abraham? Noah? Enoch? David? Yeah they all messed up just like we do, but they acknowleded it, accepted His forgiveness and moved on to seek Him even harder; walking with God. We trip, make a mess, God picks us up, cleans us off and lovingly says "try again". Holiness can only be attainded through accepting what Jesus has done for us, not by what we do, for we only seem to mar the beauty of what he has given us and yet He loves us... Hmmmmmm
Random I know, a smattering of thoughts from a tuckered out sunburnt girl who knows she is loved with an everlasting love that she will never understand...
