the walk of faith

thanks to rose, one of our members, for this fantastic clip of the harrowing walk of el camino del rey.

we often talk about walking in faith and many of us picture a pleasant stroll through a sunlit field of fresh flowers with a bubbling stream. thus, we do not understand when things feel 'off' and we begin to think that we have been abandoned by god or that god was never with us to begin with.

however, if we start to think of our walk with god more like this we can see the inexplicable beauty of the journey but also the times when security and peace seem far and even times when life seems legitimately dangerous!

the walk of faith is more akin to el camino than it is to a pleasant sunday stroll! enjoy the view and remember that the destination at the end of the walk is worth it all!

happy viewing....
