John 8:12-
Here we find the secret of "how not to stumble around in life". Jesus said, "I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won't be stumbling through the darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life." The secret is learning how to follow Jesus. As we follow Him and the light, it will lead us to life. "Life" is 'zoe' in the greek that means, "life as God has it". Can you imagine what Gods life is like? Thats the life that Jesus desires for us to have. John 10:10 says "I have come that you might have life, and life abundantly". Where is this light? Psalm says, thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. As we follow the Word the Word will lead us through the dark places in life and lead us to the kind of life that God enjoys. Proverbs says that Gods word is life unto those that find it and health to all their flesh. Jesus said, the words that I speak are spirit and life. Lets allow God to help us not to be stumbling around in life. He wants to give us feet like hinds feet that can navigate high places without falling.
