As I meditate on the events of this Holy Week, my heart is very humbled as I try to contemplate even a fraction of what it cost Jesus to purchase my salvation on Calvary!
The words of a beautiful old song entitled, "I Walked Today Where Jesus Walked" have seemed to fix themselves in my mind this week, and have thrilled me, blessed me and inspired me as I continue to walk with this Stranger of Galilee. I trust they will stir your heart also as we continue our journey to the Cross and beyond!
"I walked today where Jesus walked, in days of long ago;
I wandered down each path He knew, with reverent step and slow.
Those little lanes, they have not changed -- a sweet peace fills the air.
I walked today where Jesus walked, and felt His presence there.
My pathway led through Bethlehem,
Ah! memories ever sweet;
The little hills of Galilee, that knew those childish feet;
The Mount of Olives, hallowed scenes that Jesus knew before;
I saw the mighty Jordan roll as in the days of yore.
I knelt today where Jesus knelt -- where all alone He prayed;
The Garden of Gethsemane -- my heart felt unafraid!
I picked my heavy burden up -- and with Him by my side,
I climbed the Hill of Calvary -- I climbed the Hill of Calvary --
I climbed the Hill of Calvary -- where on the Cross He died!
I walked today where Jesus walked, and felt Him close to me!"
