The Full Light Of Day



The way of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn,
    which shines ever brighter until the full light of day.
But the way of the wicked is like total darkness.
    They have no idea what they are stumbling over.

--Proverbs 4:18-19 (NLT)



Father of Lights,



Thank You that the path that You have set me on, grows brighter with each step I take, driving the darkness away until that moment I join You in Heaven…and darkness is no more.


Just as the light of a new day gradually overtakes the darkness of night, so Your love overtakes the darkness of my soul, as I continue to purpose to walk the path You set before me.


And as I walk that path, You continue to brighten the way before me, so that I am increasingly sure of the direction You are leading me and more confident of Your power at work in me along the way.



Keep me far from the way of the wicked, who—because of the darkness they walk in—cannot even see the sin that trips them up.


Thank You that the path that You have set me on, grows brighter with each step I take, driving the darkness away until that moment I join You in Heaven…and darkness is no more.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
