Entering my hotel after a long day of flying, my traveler\u2019s suitcase rolling behind me, I would drop onto the bed in exhaustion. Twelve hours of flying, dealing with disgruntled passengers, all while wearing heels and a skirt, wore me out. As glamorous as a Flight Attendant\u2019s life appears, it has a lonely side that many people don\u2019t recognize. Long hours serving thankless people take their toll on anyone. And so, many nights when I collapsed in my hotel room, I would open the nightstand drawer and pull out the Gideon Bible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flipping open the hardcover book, I would run my thumb over the edges of the onion paper, flicking through the pages until I landed on a spot. Using my forefinger as a guide, I would begin reading the scriptures, looking for a word from God that would apply to my life. And miracle upon miracle, I always found it. No matter how many times I flipped to a random spot in the Bible, I always discovered something that uplifted and encouraged me, or convicted me. Either way, my practice of seeking the Lord through His word assured me of His presence. In my loneliness, Jesus met me and kept me company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each morning, when I spend time with the Savior, reading scriptures, I find something that always speaks to my heart and directs my path. Whether I must forgive an offense or apologize for my actions, each morning, I come away from my time with the Lord with renewed direction and purpose for the day ahead. God\u2019s word truly does light our paths when we seek and apply it to our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let the Lord illuminate your path with His word. Make spending time in scripture a daily practice and watch how it transforms your life. God has a plan for your life; He can\u2019t wait to share it with you. But if you don\u2019t spend time with the Savior, you will never discover His plan. The Lord reveals truth to us as we follow Him. God doesn\u2019t give us the whole story, but He will give us the next step, and then the next one. Tap into divine light by reading God\u2019s word and applying it to your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a world of uncertainty, trust the certain One who already knows how the story ends. Follow Jesus, let Him light your path and take you on a journey you can\u2019t even imagine. Allow the Lord\u2019s divine light lead you on the path to abundant life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
