"Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him."
--Genesis 5:24
The documentary In the Shadow of the Moon includes the story of Charlie Duke, one of the Apollo 16 astronauts launched to the moon in 1972. While the command ship orbited the moon, Duke and another astronaut landed the lunar module Orion on the moon's surface. After 3 days pf running experiments and collecting lunar rocks,the Apollo 16 crew safely returned to earth.
Later, Charlie has a spiritual transformation. He said it began when his friend invited him to a Bible study. After the meeting, Charlie prayed to Christ, "I give You my life, and if You're real come into my life." He then experienced an indescribable peace. It was so profound that he began to share his story with others. Charlie told them, "My walk with god lasts forever."
The Bible tells us of another man who walked with god. "Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him." (Gen. 5:24). His spiritual walk with God was so close that God took him directly into eternity (see Heb.11:5)
We can learn a lesson from Charlie and Enoch. For believers, no matter where our journey leads, our walk with God will last eternity! --Dennis Fisher
Let me walk with You, dear Savior;
Side by side and hand in hand;
Keep me clean and pure and faithful
Till I reach the heavenly land. --Hess
REFLECT ON THIS:
Keep eternity's goal in sight by walking daily in God's light.
