Light your Lamp

    Mathew 5:14-16
“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.


No one wants to spend time in total darkness. Someone will find the switch and turn the lights on thus dispelling the darkness. If there is no electricity then one will reach for a candle. The Light coming from either source will illuminate and make it easier to navigate and find stuff. 
Without the light, one would be bumping into stuff and it would be a nightmare to find anything. Too frustrating and aggravating which can lead to all sorts of things for example a dull mood, anger, accidents etc.
     Psalm 119:105
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

The Lord has made it quite easy for us to travel this sojourn we have embarked on. He had the Bible written and within it, Truth is contained. Truth has a way of warding away misunderstanding. It has a way of leading us onto the right path.
     Hosea 4:6
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge [Vision]: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
   Psalm 119:11
Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
Don't take your salvation for granted. When you loose sight of the ultimate Goal i.e. Jesus Christ, at this junction you find your steps heading in the wrong direction. Also, behind you is a trail of people who have looked up to you because they saw Jesus in you! Keep the LIGHT burning so that others may know which way to go.


SELAH.
