I love the outdoors and praying while I walk. My prayer retreats are at Pymatuning State Park in Pennsylvania. When I visit my sister in the High Desert, California, I feel a special closeness to God, there. I found a new place, too, Poland Village Forest, in Ohio, that I will post about soon. We just discovered it Saturday and my the beauty, peace and wonderful wild silence in the middle of suburbia. God shows so many wonders in His creation.
Also as I walk the neighborhood I pray for the people in those homes. I did an inside prayer walk with the girls class I taught at our church. We just prayed at rooms, offices, sanctuary. It is beneficial to visualize prayer.

Yes I think so too… How lovely that He chooses such beautiful reminders of His Presence, and in ways so sensitive to us too!

Love the thoughts on prayer walking,I guess where people prefer to walk with God can vary with personalties or moods but I feel that God can set the scene for the best way to get our attention or put us in that place where we are so close to Him we hear and almost see Him at work in us and around us. My favourite place for walks is Dartmoor in Devon , I love the bleakness and isololation almost a wilderness walk , nobody else around but God.
