Today’s Bible Reading: 2 Kings 10; 2 Timothy 1: Hosea 2; Psalms 119:97-120

God’s word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. -Psalm 119:105

Ever been out in the woods at night?  Ever been out in the woods alone at night?  I am married to a man who likes to walk in the night without a flashlight, I prefer a really bright one.  I have tried on occasion to do it his way when we are camping, and on one particular night we were walking along the dark road enjoying a beautiful star filled night, with just enough light to fool one into thinking they could see, then came the speed bump (with paint that was very much faded) and down I went.  He decided that perhaps it was time we tried it my way; at least when we are together.  I like seeing the path in front of me-it keeps my feet from stumbling and saves me from those nasty falls. 
​
Our compromise now is that I wear a headlamp, not a very bright one, but I can sort of see where I am going now, and Ken has never let me miss that speed bump again.  However, when I walk those campground roads alone at night, I grab the brightest flashlight I have.  I want that light to shine into as much of the darkness as it can so I feel safer along the way.  God’s word does that for me as I walk along this life.  It is the light in the darkness that keeps my feet from stumbling.  Without it the speed bumps will trip me up.  So I start my day with God’s word to illumine my way.  I hide His word in my heart so that His word comes to mind when I need it.  It is the best and brightest light I have for navigating this life.
Grace, Peace, and Mercy,
