If the Bible had not been given us — we would not know the way that Jesus walked. But he has given us his Word. The way of the Bible — is the way of Christ, and is therefore the true path of life. O pilgrim to the heavenly kingdom — the Word of God will be a lamp unto your feet and a light unto your path. It will enlighten you home. There will never be a day so dark, but the beams of light from the blessed Bible will pierce through the darkness and fall with a bright radiance upon your pathway. If sometimes you cannot see just where Jesus stepped — then take the precious Book of God, and it will be a lamp to show you the way he trod.
One wintry morning a father went a long distance through the deep snow to feed his sheep. A few hours later a little boy was sent to call his father home. The child was carefully stepping in the footprints before him — but soon a dark cloud arose and the blinding snow-storm so dimmed his eyes that he frequently stepped aside. In the beautiful, clear light of the Bible we can see all the way that Jesus trod. If we will walk according to the Bible, we shall walk as Jesus walked — and not miss one step. Make the blessed Word of God your guide — if you would walk the path of life aright and be happy. https://www.gracegems.org/D/how_to_live_a_holy_life.htm Charles Elbert Orr.
