Dear Babes,
I read this and was remembering how when my children were little I tried to explain this exact verse with a dark room and a flashlight. Darkness being without God, running into things, insecure, trying to "feel" our way around. Then, with the flashlight, all was illuminated! The exercise communicated this truth so clearly!
When my children entered Kindergarten at Stoneybrooke Christian School, they said the pledge allegiance to not only the flag, but to the Bible; I pledge allegiance to the Bible, God's Holy Word. Make it a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path that I might not sin against God.
God desires the Bible to be more than just a book. The Lord wants His Word to work in our lives as a source of illumination and direction for us as we navigate the dark and hidden turns in life!
Fast forward to today....., my sister sends me this youtube video of a group of people who had never seen or read the Bible, in their own language. They seemed to understand vividly how special His Word really is!! The excitement was beyond touching! It was a huge blessing to me and I'm hoping the same for you !!!
