There was a time in my life I was feeling really low. Life was so very hard for me back then. I would always turn to the scriptures for comfort and relief. One day I came across a scripture I had read over and over for years. But at this one moment in time, it was as if it were written in blazing light just for me. Proverbs 4:18, "But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day."
I knew in that moment that word was given to me from Jesus. I realized that He was telling me I was on a sure path, though rough, but having promise of ever-increasing light. I saw that it has an end that has no ending. I saw it in three parts. Since then that word has reminded me about this "path of life," that as long as I am journeying on it, will be with growth throughout the my days. But in that growth, He would be perfecting His love in me His graces of love, of mercy, of joy, forgiveness, patience, meekness, goodness and more.
As a young woman I understood that that light could only be in reference to the word of God lived out in me. The going to the word and doing what He told me to do in it. I saw another verse, "Light is sown for the righteous and gladness for the upright in heart." Psalm 97:11. And, "With thee is the fountain of life, in thy light shall we see light." Psalm 36:9.
With the Lord is only increase, and the "brighter and brighter." I saw that we all "increase with the increase of God." Everything about God enlarges, grows, expands, reaches and stretches eternally. "Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end." It says in Isaiah 55:11: "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it."
I saw that His word has been spoken, and it will accomplish His good pleasure, and prosper in the things He has sent it. In Psalm 147:15 it reads,"He sendeth forth his commandment upon earth: his word runneth very swiftly."
You see His word must always be your light. The path you are on must be understood that it is a shining one, a holy one, a safe one. Make it your determination and aim to keep on it by faithfully abiding daily in His written word of Light. Christ is your Light. Trust Him to see you all the way home to heaven. His word will lighten your path making sure you get there in great victory. Where you will see all the saints and Christ "face to face," and go on into everlasting joy with crowns on your head while you rejoice with great rejoicing and unspeakable glory.
"The life of faith is not a life of mounting up with wings, but a life of walking and not fainting.” Oswald Chambers ― Oswald Chambers
