Finding your way though life
How can a blindfolded person walk though a house without hitting anything? one way would be to give him a stick, but that might knock something valuable over. Another way would be to simply remove everything from the house, but that would defeat the purpose of the plan.
The best way would be to tell the blindfolded person, bit by bit, where to turn, step and move. Slowly but surely, using this method, a blind person could go right though a china shop!
Being a Christian is a bit (but not a lot) like this. The world is full of many traps and holes, and we are not aware of all the obstacles, so we must listen for directions. The Bible is God's voice, calling to us day by day, helping us though.
The Bible says "Direct my footsteps according to your word; let no sin rule over me"
(Psalm 119:133 New International Version)
