The Guiding Light

The Word of God begins my day, It is the light throughout my way, When darkness envelopes my night, The Word of God shines forth its light, It is a lamp unto my feet, The lighthouse to which I retreat, The guiding light, I hold it high, It lights my path, it lights my sky, It is a shining light to me, My magnifying glass to see, It brightens up the path I take, Helps me in decisions I make, The Word of God does shine so bright, It is my lamp, my guiding light. 10/15/18

Jo: This is awesome, so crisp is its flow that I got delightfully moved along by strong rhyme full of conviction that witnesses our Father. It is absolutely a winner. I was considering Guiding Light and did not think all would write of our Father, but everyone has so far; however, this is supreme - may-hap spirit helped you pen this, it happens. Love it.

Great image to go with the poem! Now I have the Amy Grant song in my head, which is not a bad thing. Have a blessed day, Jo!
