Today I was doing somethinking and I wondered (quite randomely) how many miles he average person walks in a lifetime...well I looked it up and found out that he average person (given that they started walking at about the age of one and lived until they were 80 years old) would have taken around 2,000,000 steps (thats a heck of alot of steps. Think about that number for a few minutes) and therefore (assuming that the person in question takes has an average stride) they would have walked around 108,131 miles in a lifetime.
Now, I gave that statistic a little thought and I challenged myself to walk across the Usa or maybe around the entire earth just walking and speaking the gospel to everyone and anyone I encounter. I mean, wouldn't that be soo awesome to just put all responsibilities and worries of everyday life aside and just walk and travel and preach? To live for and by Christs provision with your every waking breath. It just sounds amazing to me. It would take a lot of faith but everyday you would be living for Christ with your whole existence.
I've decided I'm going to do that one Day. Ill just drop everything and just go.
Wow, that's a lot of steps. But that's a cool ambition of yours. It sounds so neat to do something like that, where you basically give up everything that you would use to support yourself and instead rely on God and preach His Word. I hope you get to do that someday, and that people could be Saved by it.
