[don’t] take a stand…

…take a walk.
When you take a stand, it causes your muscles tighten up, atrophy being the end result. When you take a walk, it ensures that your muscles stay loose and flexible, proving them useful in the moments you need them most.
When you take a stand, you expect people to meet you where you’re at. When you take a walk, you tend to bump into people where they’re at.
When you take a stand, there’s a tendency to become territorial, protecting your space at all cost. When you take a walk, the odds are pretty high that you’ll find yourself crossing another’s territory, and you just might get the privilege of inviting them to take a walk with you!
When you take a stand, you reflect the rigid, unbending lifestyle of the religious leaders of Jesus’ day [a.k.a. the Sadducees & Pharisees]. When you take a walk, you reflect the lifestyle of Jesus Himself.
Who are you walking with?
