Walk in the Light: God’s Compass
Walk in the Light: God’s Compass
Your word is a lamp to my feet. Psalm119:105
During World War II, small compasses saved the lives of twenty-seven sailors three hundred miles off the coast of North Carolina. The ship SS Alcoa Guide was spotted by a German submarine, which opened fire. The ship was hit, caught fire, and began to sink. The crew lowered compass-equipped lifeboats into the water and used the compasses to guide them toward shipping lanes closer to shore. After three days, the men were rescued.
Likewise, the psalmist reminds us that God’s Word is a trustworthy compass to lead us on a path to Himself. God’s Word illuminates our path on the journey we call life and directs our steps so we can arrive safely at home with Him. Through the darkness, the Word of God becomes the lamp to guide each step we take and lights the path ahead of us.
Let Us Pray: Gracious Father, As we walk through the darkness of this world, illuminate the path of our journey with You as we take each step that leads us closer to Your loving presence. In the Name of Jesus. Amen!
