May 17 - Walk in the Light You Have

"But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured 
of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them."
(2 Timothy 3:14)

Dear Addison,

If you're born again and have the Word of God in your heart, you can live in 
victory. You may not have all the answers. There may be a great many spiritual
things you don't understand. But it's not those things that are most likely to 
destroy you. It's the things you know to do--but don't--that usually make
you fall. 

Just think about walking at night down a dark, unfamiliar path in the middle of 
a jungle. The guide up ahead has a flashlight to keep you on the right
path. But then, you just decide to wander off into the darkness by yourself. 
What do you think will happen to you? You'll probably stumble and fall. Very
likely, you'll get hurt. 

That's exactly the same thing that can happen in your walk with the Lord. He 
knows what's ahead and He shines just enough light for you to take one step
at a time. You have to continue walking in that light in order to get where 
you're going. 

You may not know why He's leading you a certain way. You may not understand all 
the things involved. But God will make up for your ignorance by the Holy
Spirit. He'll see to it that you have victory if you continue in what you know. 

It's good to keep studying. It's good to keep learning. But, remember, it's not 
the great revelation you haven't yet had that will cause you the most trouble.
It's failing to walk in the ones God has already given you. So be faithful in 
those things. Continue in them day after day after day. You'll make it through
just fine!
