Walk in the Lord's way

Deut 11:22 ¶For if ye shall diligently keep all these commandments which I command you, to do them, to love the Lord your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cleave unto him.

What is walking with the Lord? Its walking in His way. It's obeying His commandments. It's completing his ordinances and keeping our covenants with Him.

14 And they did also bury their weapons of war, according as their brethren had, and they began to be a righteous people; and they did walk in the ways of the Lord, and did observe to keep his commandments and his statutes.

It's burying our weapons of war. It's finding out what our weapons are first! What are our vices or habits or sins we need to repent of and bury?

It's loving God.

Examples

From a sacrament meeting talk in council bluffs

It should matter to us what other people think of God and the Church BECAUSE of us.

Also, not being a bad example isn't the same thing as being a good example. Not doing anything is not being a positive example.
