His Word

Dear Friends, Recently, I was up in the middle of the night and thinking about the fact that it was so dark, when this verse came to my mind.

Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.  Psalm 119:105 (KJV)

It’s so easy these days to stumble, or to run into things (or people) if I’m not paying close attention.  The days of just assuming that the sidewalk is smooth, or there is no curb in front of me, or that the slope of a drive is just a slope and not a step – those days are no more.  I must pay attention.  

But there is another thing that requires my attention in a more powerful way.  God’s Word, the Bible, It is the lamp – the light.

God’s Word – it is our lamp.

God’s Word will light our way

His Word is what we need to get through every day.

The One Eternal God, 

the source of heaven’s sight, 

has given us a guide to bathe 

our stumbling steps with light.  

That One Eternal God spoke galaxies to life.  

Radient, shimmering stars were born, the darkness to ignite. 

The story’s written down in books that span the years, 

penned by our Father's followers, 

composed with joy and tears.  

The words have been preserved by God’s eternal might, 

taken from the ancient’s hands, through trials and darkest night.

 

These works contain His will for us, the coming of the Son.  

The words contain the message that Christ came, 

the battle’s won.  

He’s God – the three in one.  

By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth.  Psalm 33:6 (NIV)

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.  John 1:14 (NIV)
