Sometimes we don\u2019t know where to start, or which way to go. In Psalm 119, God\u2019s Word is described as a lamp to our feet. In moving forward, we can expect that God will light our path. But, why at our feet? Similar to the lights of the season, why not on a series of poles to light up the road for several miles? Why not literally have it lit up like a Christmas tree? Wouldn\u2019t that be better? Safer? So we can see where we\u2019re going?<\/p>\n<p>I guess the reason God does not light our way and show us every step is so that we can depend on Him for each step. Relying on God\u2019s guidance every step of the way helps build our faith and trust in him. Once we believe Christ is who He says He is, we can trust that He will guide us into His path. While God may not change the circumstances as we\u2019d like, we can rest assure that we will never walk alone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prayer for today<\/strong>: <em>\u00a0Loving Father I thank You for the reminder that I am never alone.
