“The wicked are those who rebel against the light. They do not recognize its ways or stay on its paths.” (v. 13)

Here’s a simple—but effective—diagnostic tool for your life:

If the thing you’re doing could only be done in the dark…

If another’s eyes would be enough to deter you…

If it has to be kept in the corner and out of sight…

If the light would utterly expose you…

…then it’s not for you.

The light for our path, which is God’s Word, guides us toward the good. Every time we turn from it to taste some other thing, we find ourselves in darkened spaces, far from home.

So put the light to your deeds, diagnose their rightness, and make some changes.
