A path becomes brighter as the day begins. We won’t fully know God until we are in heaven. In time, they will know more as they live God’s way. When these people first trust God, they will know little about God. We should share the light that God has given to us. Christians should provide the light for them. They are like someone who travels at night. Many people, who are not Christians, want God in their lives. He will suffer because of his evil behavior. In the same way, the evil man is in great danger. Without any lights, the hiker will trip and fall. A trek during the dark of night is dangerous. He is like a man who hikes on a dark path. Paul writes about this in 1 Corinthians 13:12, “Now we see things imperfectly, like puzzling reflections in a mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity. All that I know now is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely, just as God now knows me completely.”Paul is writing about the time when he will see God in heaven.

He does not yet know everything that God wants to teach him. The Bible says that we all have turned from God. Sometimes people think that everyone is the same. They have no idea what they are stumbling over. Which shines ever brighter until the full light of day.ġ9 But the way of the wicked is like total darkness. Verses 18 and 19 are written in a short poem fashion and this is what they say:ġ8 The way of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, In doing so, we will be able to take the wise and correct trails each day. Let these truths penetrate deep into our minds so that they will change the way we think, which will change the course of our lives.
