Psalm 199:105-106<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path. I have taken an oath and confirmed it, that I will follow Your righteous laws.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Back in the good old days I was serving as a jet mechanic with the US Air Force<\/em> in South Dakota. From time to time it was necessary to work through the night hours. On one particular night we had to bring one of the fighter aircraft from the ramp into the hangar. It was a distance of about four city blocks.<\/p>\n

The procedure for such moves was to disconnect the batteries in the aircraft (that would be important later on). Two of us went to bring the plane in. I was riding in the cockpit to use the brakes while the other mechanic operated the tow tractor.<\/p>\n

We had just started the move when we saw the lights of a car coming toward us. I tried to turn the lights on to alert the driver of our presence, but of course there was no power and thus no lights. The tow tractor driver flashed his lights, but the car kept speeding toward us.<\/p>\n

There was a sickening crash as the car struck the fuel pod located on the tip of the wing. The driver was one of the young pilots and was driving far too recklessly toward the alert hangar where he was on duty. Since we were just lowly enlisted men he gave us a piece of his mind that he couldn\u2019t afford to give. His threats ended quickly the next day when he was called before the Commanding Officer and received discipline.<\/p>\n

There are many times when we have been given warnings that danger lies ahead. The darkness of this world has blinded us. My prayer is that God will light our life and that we will follow only as far as His light shines.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Blessings dear hearts. Wait for the Lord to light your path and above all, be a blessing!<\/p>\n
