Do you remember the time
when many of Jesus's disciples quit walking with Him?
When it happened, Jesus asked the twelve, "Do you want to go away as well?"
Peter answered by saying, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life..." (Jn.6:68).
Now when Peter uses the words 'eternal life' here, he's not just speaking of life after
death.
He's saying that through Jesus we can know God and experience the life He has for us in the here and now.
... And, that this life can be found nowhere else.
So, of course... if we're to have the wisdom and grace and power we need to live the life God has for us, it's only going to happen as we walk with
Jesus.
And this includes walking with Him in whatever He has called us to do.
