My Walking With Christ

Recently, a man with whom I correspond asked me about my walk with Christ.  While he didn't use those exact words - "walk with Christ" - that's what I took him to mean.  So I thought about it for a few days, mulling it over in my mind.  Below is my response:

“. . . in my mind's eye when I think about walking with Christ, I've learned by experience it's not wise to walk in front of Him (even though I stupidly do it quite often) because I don't know where I'm going.  And frankly I don't like to walk beside Him because I'm usually ashamed of myself for this or that.  No, in my mind's eye, I see myself walking behind Him, following Him, crying out to Him like those in the Gospels, 'Son of David, have mercy on me!'”
