May 21, 2019 - ARE YOU WALKING IN THE LIGHT?

Day 141 - (Today’s Bible readings: Proverbs 30; Psalm 119:105-112; 2 Peter 2:1-10)

“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” (Psalm 119:105 ESV)

Are you walking in the light? If so, that means that you are taking seriously the directions God’s gives us for such a walk. Listen to what David says a few verses later in chapter 119.

“Great peace have those who love your law; nothing can make them stumble.”

Walking in the Light of God’s Word will prevent you from stumbling.

   Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.
  When I feel afraid, think I’ve lost my way, still You’re there right beside me,
  And nothing will I fear as long as You are near.  Please be near me to the end.
  Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.

  Now I will not forget Your love for me and yet My heart forever is wandering.
  Jesus, be my guide and hold me to Your side, and I will love You to the end.
  Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.
  (Thy Word, Text, Amy grant, Tune, Michael W. Smith)

Almighty God, may the light of Your Word be my guiding light. May I daily walk in the light of the cross and so glorify You and be used to draw others to Jesus.  Amen.

Pastor David Paape
