Psalm 119:105, “The word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path.”

      His word becomes the light that illuminates you and shows you the way.  If you are to be trimmed every day, so that the light can become brighter in you, the utensil used to trim your wick will be the word of God.  So every day we need to be filled with the Spirit.  You see, the actual lamp does not provide the light.  What actually provides the light is the oil.  So this is the picture that we have from the word of God.  Every day, as we feed on the word of God and meditate on His promises, the Holy Spirit breathes on the word and it becomes alive, or, it illuminates us as we walk through the world.  It shines before us so that no matter what situation you find yourself in, it shows you how to proceed and to walk through it.  As our light continues to grow brighter from more filling and more trimming, we start to shine so bright that we become a light for everyone around us to be drawn to.  After all, when it’s dark outside, if you don’t have a flashlight, you’ll find the one who does and walk with them so that we can see where we’re going.  Teri commented on yesterday’s message, “This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine.”  , “And now," as Paul Harvey would say, "you have the rest of the story!”     God Bless,  Rusty
