WHO IS YOUR GUIDE
Shared by Joe Gatuslao
Jun 19, 2007

An elderly woman stood on the busy street corner, hesitant to cross
because theres no traffic signal. As she waited, a gentleman came up
beside her and asked, "May I cross over with you?" Relieved, she
thanked him and took his arm.

The path they took was anything but safe. The man seemed confused as
they dodged traffic and walked in a zigzag pattern across the street.
"You almost got us killed !" the woman exclaimed with anger when they
finally reached the curb. "You walked like youre blind !" Ïam," he
replied. "That's why I asked if I could cross with you."

Jesus said to the pharisees, "They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into the ditch"(Matt. 15:14). We have to be careful not to entrust our spiritual direction to someone who cannot see the clear teachings of God's word. Life is too dangerous, eternity too long, and our spititual destiny too important to take any chances with the leaders we follow.

"Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path"(Psalms
119:105). We should trust only those who themselves walk in the light
of that lamp and use it to guide others through the dark maze of this
present world.
