“Your word is a lamp
to my feet and a
light to my path.”
Psalm 119:105
The darkness of the night didn’t fade, and
the woods didn’t appear less looming, but
we were far less apprehensive as we gathered
wood for our waiting fire. The walk back to
our fire pit was filled with revelations as the
boys tried to apply the object lesson to their
own questions about what God may want
them to do when they grow up. It gave them
peace to know they didn’t have to worry
about what was up ahead that they couldn’t
see yet. Their next step would be illuminated
under seeking God, studying His Word, and
praying for wisdom. They kept the light
aimed in front of our feet instead of shin-
ing it aimlessly in all directions. We walked
surefooted, made better time on the return
trip, and spent the next few hours laughing,
singing, and eating way too many burnt
marshmallows.
