[expand title=”Devotion Text”]Psalm 118:26-29
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! We bless you from the house of the Lord. The Lord is God, and he has made his light to shine upon us. Bind the festal sacrifice with cords, up to the horns of the altar! You are my God, and I will give thanks to you; you are my God; I will extol you. Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever!
The light of the Lord! It reveals the path ahead and illuminates our hearts. It highlights when we are cruising on the right path and when we have taken a dangerous detour. We pray that God’s light always shines on us. That’s also a great prayer to pray for our children and grandchildren.
