Light in the Darkness

Isaiah 42:16 (WEB)

I will bring the blind by a way that they don't know. I will lead them in paths that they don't know. I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. I will do these things, and I will not forsake them.

Reflection

Unfamiliar paths are terrifying, unless your guide has perfect vision. God promises to lead you through places you've never been and turn the darkness into light before you. He goes ahead, not behind. The unfamiliar path is safe when God has already lit it up.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, I trust You on the unfamiliar paths. Even when I can't see where I'm going, You're already there turning darkness into light. Lead me boldly into the unknown with You.
