A Lamp for Your Path
Living by God's Word.
Letting Scripture guide your steps.
The big idea
God's Word lights the next step, even when the whole road is dark.
What does “A Lamp for Your Path” walk through?
A Lamp
Psalm 119:105 · KJV
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
In plain English
Your word lights up just enough to take the next step.
Enough Light
A lamp shows the next step, not the whole journey. That's enough.
Hidden in the Heart
Psalm 119:11 · KJV
Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
In plain English
I've stored your words inside me, so I'm equipped when temptation comes.
Stored Up
Verses you hide in your heart become strength when you need them most.
Pray
Lord, let your Word guide my steps and guard my heart. Amen.
