All of a sudden the light was gone, NEPA had struck, everywhere was black, i mean pitch black, how i hated darkness. i knew my house so well, like the back of my hand. I stood up confidently heading towards the dining section where the rechargeable lantern was always. my foot caught something and i felt pain, i quickly stretched out my hands to feel the environment anew, with arms stretched out i began to imagine how the blind had to pass through this difficulty daily, how they miss a turn and often fall. then it hit me!the spiritually blind. how does a spiritually blind person get across the hurdle called life, the falls, the pain, the confusion, the darkness. in a world where only the spiritually alive man can move, how will a spiritually blind man survive? where the path clear , neither is the direction given, how they grope in darkness, blindly searching.
On getting to the dining area and putting on the light the whole sitting room was illuminated. wooooow, how beautiful and pleasant to see, then i realized THE WORD IS LAMP UNTO MY FEET AND A LAMP UNTO MY PATH. The word of the lord, my guiding light, the refresher of my soul, the joy of the world.
WHEN light comes darkness has no choice but to disappear there is no struggle or fight in this, it is so automatic the transforming power of the word. Without the word of God you will most certainly miss your way, you will grope in darkness, you will miss your step, stumble and fall, you will lose direction, your mobility will be slow and unsure. only his word can guide you, only his word can direct your path. take a minute to ask, AM I SPIRITUALLY BLIND? how much of the word do you know? how open is your heart to let God lead you?
