Lord, thou hast given us thy Word for a light to shine upon our path;
grant us so to meditate on that Word, and to follow its teaching,
that we may find in it the light that shines more and more until the perfect day;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
(Jerome, c 342 - 420)

The heart
of Jerome’s prayer focused on God’s Word and as Psalm 119 tells us, God’s word
is our light on the path.
There are
times when I have felt confused and alone, unsure of where to turn. This prayer reminds me where my answers lie
and how to seek. By meditating on the
Word and following that word, we find answers through Jesus.
If you are
wrestling with how God is directing you, look no longer…turn to scripture and
spend time meditating on a passage, any passage where God leads. You will be blessed by God’s
faithfulness.
