When it’s dark, my headlights show me what is just ahead of me. They get me further down the road to see the next lighted strip of road and then the next and the next. When a light burns out, my vision is restricted. If both lights go out, I would be driving blinded. Not only am I at risk, but others are at risk as well.
Proverbs 3:5-6
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart;
do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do,
and he will show you which path to take.”
