Daily Light on the Daily Path
Morning:
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
By the word of thy lips I have kept me from the paths of
the destroyer. Hold up my goings in thy paths, that my
footsteps slip not. When thou goest, it shall lead thee; when
thou sleepest, it shall keep thee; and when thou awakest, it
shall talk with thee. For the commandment is a lamp; and the
law is light. Thine ears shall hear a word behind thee,
saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the
right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not
walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. We have
also a sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye
take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place. Now we
see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know
in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. They
need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God
giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.

Evening:
What meanest thou, O sleeper? arise.
This is not your rest: it is polluted, it shall
destroy you. Set your affection on things above, not on
things on the earth. If riches increase, set not your heart
upon them. Set your heart and your soul to seek the LORD your
God; arise therefore.
Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.
Take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be
overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this
life, and so that day come upon you unawares.
While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
Yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will
not tarry. Now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now
is our salvation nearer than when we believed. Watch ye
therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh,
at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the
morning: lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.
