The ways that I walk humbly with God is because I follow what he preached and said. In one of his preaching he said, "Treat people how you would treat yourself". What this means is to treat someone else the way you treat your own self or body. I walk this because I am constantly being nice with my parents, and people around me or volunteering. Both of these are god ways I walk humbly with God because I treat myself in a good way. When I volunteer I fell great after because I helped people but with a smile on my face and sometimes on their face too. I love volunteering, and when I volunteer I feel like I'm doing a lot to help these people. Another way I walk humbly is not only with people but animals. My passion is to take in animals, that's why I walk humbly with God so I can also save his creation in two ways.
