“Your Word is a lamp for my feet and a light on my path.” Psalm 119:105
“你的话是我脚前的灯，是我路上的光。” 诗篇119:105
God’s Word is represented as a lamp for the feet.
神的话被比作脚前的明灯。
It is a “lamp”—not a blazing sun, nor even a lighthouse—but a plain, common lamp or lantern which one can carry about in the hand.
这是一盏”灯”——不是炽烈的太阳，也不是灯塔——而是一盏普通的、可以手提的简单灯笼。
It is a lamp “for the feet,” not throwing its beams afar, not illumining a hemisphere—but shining only on the one little bit of road on which the pilgrim’s feet are walking.
这是”脚前”的灯，不是远照的光，不是照亮半个地球的光——而是仅仅照亮朝圣者脚下那一小段路的光。
The law of divine guidance is, “Step by step”. One who carries a lantern on a country-road at night, sees only one step before him. If he takes that step, he carries his lantern forward, and thus makes another step plain. At length he reaches his destination in safety, without once stepping into darkness. The whole way has been made light for him, though only a single step of it at a time.
神引导的法则是”一步一步”。夜晚在乡间小路上提着灯笼的人，只能看见前面一步的路。当他迈出这一步，他把灯笼向前移，就又照亮了下一步。最终他安全到达目的地，从未踏入黑暗。虽然每次只照亮一步，但整条路途都因此被照亮了。
If this is the way God guides, it ought never to be hard for us to find our duty. It never lies far away, inaccessible to us—but is always near. It never lies out of our sight, in the darkness, for God never puts our duty where we cannot see it. The thing that we think may be our duty, but which is still lying in obscurity and uncertainty—is not our duty yet, whatever it may be a little farther on.
如果这就是神引导的方式，那么找到我们的责任就不该困难。责任从不遥不可及——而是始终在近处。责任从不隐藏在视线之外的黑暗中，因为神从不把我们的责任放在我们看不见的地方。那些我们认为可能是责任，但仍然模糊不清的事——还不是我们现在的责任，不管它将来可能是什么。
Jesus said, “He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness.” Prompt, unquestioning, undoubting following of Christ—takes all the perplexity out of Christian life and gives unbroken peace.
耶稣说：”跟从我的，就不在黑暗里走。”即时的、不疑问、不怀疑地跟随基督——消除了基督徒生活中的一切困惑，带来持续的平安。
Our daily prayer should be, “Direct my footsteps according to Your Word; let no sin rule over me.” Psalm 119:133
我们每日的祷告应该是：”求你用你的话引导我的脚步，不让罪辖制我。”诗篇119:133
