Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. – Psalm 119:105
When I take time to think about how I have strayed from His path, it is easy to look back and remember the moments when I chose self-indulgence rather than the path of righteousness. The path is so clear, it is already lit in the darkness before us, but we often cave to our desires and our selfish ways.
This line from the Book of Psalms is beautiful imagery for the path we attempt to travel to avoid sinful ways. We all have an internal compass that alerts us when we are about to stray, but in those moments will our self-control keep us going down the correct path?
Christ Jesus has already lit the way… but He is also our guide when we stray. We must remember that even when wehave gone so far off the path, Christ is still walking with us. He will never stop comforting us as we struggle through the wilderness of life.
Greet Him as you start your day today. Christ walks beside you.
