"He who carries a lantern on a dark road at night sees only one step ahead," someone once said. When he takes that step, the lamp advances and a further step becomes clear. Finally, without ever wandering in the dark, he arrives at his destination safely. The entire route is illuminated, but only one step at a time. This is the way that God leads us.
When someone accepts the Lord Jesus as their Savior, they are aware of their ultimate goal and confident in their ability to reach it. But the pilgrimage route may be obscured by the ominous cloud of the unknown. The weary traveler frequently feels unsettled and robbed of the calm and security the Lord meant for him to experience by potential pitfalls, lurking dangers, and fatal blunders.
However, the child of God discovers by the light of God's Word the grace and direction for every circumstance in life as he refuses to worry about tomorrow and trusts Him for today. The lamp of Scripture lights our route, just as a lantern sheds light on each fresh stride on a dark road at night.
It's not required to look further than what the Lord makes clear. There is always enough light to see clearly if we follow His guidance!
If you are walking in God's light today, there is no need to be afraid of the darkness tomorrow. He doesn't guide me day by day, or even year by year; rather, My Lord shows me the way as I proceed step by step.
