When we come to the end of the road and we need to turn a particular way, how do we know which way to turn? There doesn't seem to be any sign markings or indication as to what will happen down the road. It is dark and we need to walk by faith; one step at a time.
Have you ever walked in the dark carrying a flashlight that is fairly dim? The distance ahead that you can see is just ahead as you take the next step. Well, I have been thinking today about how I really do not like change. I like to know what is ahead and I like to know how things are going to go when we come around the next bend. BUT, where is the faith in that?
God says to walk by faith; step by step trusting Him to guide the way. We will see what we need to see when we are supposed to see it. We need to continue walking unless He directs otherwise. If the path was fully lite, how much faith would it take to continue walking ahead? Not much at all; in fact we would be tempted to walk in our own abilities; trusting in ourselves.
Thanks Father for the dark paths where we are forced to let you light the way; remind me to trust you when there is so much ahead that we have yet to have clarity on.
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet; and a light unto my path!
Til Next Time
