Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Psalm 119:105
God will show us the way forward. A guide is always useful when you need directions. We have all kinds of gadgets, tools and mobile apps that can give us the travel directions from point A to point B. We have GPS systems that interact with satellites that tell us exactly where we are on earth and how to get to where we need to go. The technology is amazing and way beyond the atlas and paper maps that was our source for directions for centuries.
We will need a road map for what’s ahead. Life’s journey continues and we will need a reliable, trustworthy source to keep us on the right track. “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” This familiar Psalm is a reminder and an assurance that the Word of God is the ultimate guidebook for our lives. It gives us the “turn by turn” instructions for our steps’ moving forward. At times we may be perplexed about how to move ahead. Seeking Him first in our situations, reading the Bible, sets the stage for knowing which way to go. Our God is faithful to send the right guidance, the right provision at the right time to move onward in our journey. God will show us the way forward and we are thankful.
