John 10:3-5

 To him the porter openeth;

and the sheep hear His voice:

and he calleth His own sheep by name,

and leadeth them out.

And when he putteth forth His own sheep,

 

He goeth before them,

and the sheep follow Him:

for they know His voice.

 And a stranger will they not follow,

but will flee from him:

 for they know not the voice of strangers.

 

 

John 16:13

Howbeit when He,

the Spirit of truth,

is come

He will guide you into all truth:

for He shall not speak of himself;

but whatsoever He shall hear,

that shall He speak:

and He will shew you things to come.

It is the last step that wins; and there is no place in the pilgrim’s progress where so

many dangers lurk as the

region that lies hard by the portals of the Celestial City.  It was there that Doubting

Castle stood.  It was

there that the enchanted ground lured the tired traveler to fatal slumber.  It is when

Heaven’s heights are

full in view that hell’s gate is most persistent and full of deadly peril.

The voice of the Almighty said, “up and onward forevermore.”  Let us move on and step

 

out boldly, though

 

we walk into the night and we can scarcely see the way.  The path will open as we

progress the trail

 

through the forest or the alpine path, which discloses but a few rods of its length from

any single point of

 

view.  Press on!  If necessary, we will find even the pillar of cloud and fire to mark our

journey through the

 

wilderness.  There are guides and wayside inns along the road.

John 14:6

 

 Jesus saith unto him,

 

I

 

Am

 

the

 

    way…

*      *      *

 

 

 

 

*     *     *

Life is uncertain and sometimes there are paths that we have not been down before,

 

 

but we need never fear for the Lord will lead us every step of the way.

 

 He will hold our hand.
