"Be
strong and very courageous; be careful to do according to all the law which
Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right or to the
left, so that you may have success wherever you go." Joshua 1:7
"Watch
the path of your feet, and all your ways will be established. Do not turn to the right nor to the left;
turn your foot from evil."
Proverbs 4:26-27
"There
is none righteous, not even one; there is none who understands, there is none
who seeks for God; all have turned aside, --Their feet are swift to shed blood,
destruction and misery are in their paths, and the path of peace they have not
known.'" Romans 3:10, 15-18
"Then
Jesus again spoke to them, saying, 'I am the Light of the world; he who follows
Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.'" John 8:12
"Therefore
be imitators of God, as beloved children; and walk in love, just as Christ also
loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a
fragrant aroma." Ephesians 5:2
"For
You have delivered my soul from death, indeed my feet from stumbling. So that I may walk before God in the light of
the living." Psalm 56:13
We walk by faith, but not blind
faith. He provides the Light,. It's up to us to trust Him. Yet, we are responsible to choose our
pathways wisely and keep them safe and clean so we are less tempted to stray
down a dangerous or dark path where we will stumble and fall.
Take care with love, especially His! Your servant and friend in Christ, who prays
for you each morning, Darlene
