Walking Beside Him

Walking Beside Him…

Good morning,

Today, let’s discover the strength and illumination that come from daily walking with God, even in the darkest of times.

You, Lord, are my lamp; the Lord turns my darkness into light.
2 Samuel 22:29

Imagine that you’re stumbling through a pitch-black room, arms outstretched, and fear rising. Suddenly, a warm light flickers on, held by someone who knows the way. That’s the heart of David’s declaration in 2 Samuel 22:29.

This isn’t about God being a distant streetlight. He’s our personal lamp, intimate and ever-present. In life’s darkest valleys – whether it’s a health crisis, a relationship breakdown, or a crisis of faith – God doesn’t just illuminate the path. He transforms the darkness itself into light.

Think about that power for a moment. It’s not just about seeing through the darkness but about the darkness itself being changed. Your confusion can become clarity. Your fear can become courage. Your sorrow can become hope.

Today, whatever shadows loom in your life, remember: you have a God who doesn’t just hold the light. He is the light. And in His presence, even the deepest darkness doesn’t stand a chance. Let His light guide your steps, warm your heart, and transform your perspective.

We all need God’s light to guide us through life. It is not a matter of trusting Him. It’s having the faith to know He is right beside you every step of the way.

Heavenly Father, You’re the light that chases away every shadow. When I’m lost in confusion, wrestling with doubts, or feeling afraid, I know I can turn to You. Shine Your wisdom on the choices I make, fill my relationships with Your love, and light up my future with Your hope. Even when darkness seems to surround me, remind me that You have the power to turn it into something beautiful. Guide my steps today, lighting the way forward, even when I can’t see it myself. Use me to be a reflection of Your light, Lord. Let me shine for those who are still stumbling in the dark. May my life show that You can bring light into any situation. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

All the darkness in the world can not extinguish the light of a single candle.

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,

Ed 🙏🏼
