I have a song that popped up in my head this morning, so I'm going to take that as my inspiration. It's My Lighthouse by Rend Collective Experiment. Basically the gist of it is that God is like a lighthouse.
Huh? I didn't get it at first either.
Well, what does a lighthouse do? It shines out in the darkness. It tells the ships where to go. It keeps people safe from rocks and hidden dangers.
God is our light in this darkened world. He shows us the path and guides us safely through the troubles and dangers of this life. Even from the things we cannot see coming.
Next time I am tempted not to follow God, I will think about the lighthouse. Many a sailor would look into the sea around a lighthouse and think the water perfectly safe. He could easily choose to ignore the warning of the light. And where would that get him?
When God directs our paths, He doesn't do it just to be annoying or stop us getting what we want. He does it to keep us safe. He does it because He loves us.
Therefore:
