A lamp for my feet

SCRIPTURE: Psalm 119:97-120
“Oh, how I love your law! I meditate on it all day long.” (Psalm 119:97)
When I spend time with the Lord reading the bible, I usually hear His Voice.
Through the stories or teachings, something connects with me personally.
An insight into my own heart, how I am living, where I am going astray.
Often it doesn’t come right away, I need to spend time with it.
But when I do meditate with the Lord on what a bible passage says, He speaks.
Not a voice, but insight, understanding, awareness, wisdom.
“Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” (Psalm 119:105)
I love those moments when the light goes on.
It’s an inner ‘Aha’ moment, when pieces start to come together in my mind.
Rarely is it just information about something, it’s usually transformative.
Something I need to address or change, or something that changes how I view and live life.
It’s like a flashlight, giving me just enough light in an otherwise dark world.
Just enough light for me to know what steps I need to take today.
“My heart is set on keeping your decrees to the very end.” (Psalm 119:112)
What do you sense the Lord saying to you?
PRAYER
Lord, thank You for the way You give me insight for living. Thank You for speaking to me as I read the bible. Thank You for the light You give me every day.

    Walking God’s Way

    You are my strength and you are my song giving me hope and guiding me on

    (chorus)
    At all times I will sing of your greatness
    At all times I will sing of your love
    At all times I will sing of your faithfulness
    For your goodness remains and your love is the same at all times

    When your guidance is clear, when I can’t see ahead
    I will love you, I will trust you
    In the summer of life, in the soul’s darkest night
    I will love you, I will trust you
