God's Word is a Light Unto My Path

"The unfolding of God's Word gives light, 
it imparts understanding to the simple" 
Psalm 119:130


Yes, even you! The Word of God is so clear and light-giving that even the simple find understanding. It does not take great intellect or mental powers to benefit from God’s word.

"It is painful to remember how much light may be shining around us on every side, without finding an entrance into the heart" (Bridges)   

His words are the doorway through which light shines to impart discernment to an otherwise naive people. We cannot live better without God’s unfolding light. 
 “Your instructions are a doorway through which light shines….” from the New English Translation....We desperately need God’s doorway of light.  We are not left in the dark. God invites us into His light. His Word offers to us light that gives instruction on how to walk the same path of holiness Jesus Christ trekked. excerpt from Paula White ministries
God’s Word imparts to us understanding for moral instruction. Not only do we need this, but we also long for it. “I open my mouth and pant, because I long for your commandments”       (Psalms. 119:131 ESV).

God's Word is a lamp unto my feet and a Light unto my path, Psalm, 119:105
