Ellie Holcomb Instagram – Have you ever felt lost? Confused? Abandoned in your hour of need? Lonely? Afraid? I think we all know what it’s like to long for a little light in the dark sometimes. What I love about this verse is that it’s such a simple metaphor. God’s word is a lamp. When we are stumbling, struggling, lost, confused, lonely, exhausted, and at the end of rope in a dark night of the soul, there is a lantern we can hold. It may not reveal the whole grand journey ahead of us, but it will give us light for the next right thing. God’s word has given me hope when it felt like my soul might never sing again, so it is a joy to sing this verse from Psalm 119 with you today. My hope in this little corner of the internet, is to help anyone who stumbles onto my page to bury a little truth and light in their hearts. As I have done that over the years, it’s changed me from the inside out. This is the verse printed beautifully in gold foil on the back of my “Fighting Words” devotional, and I realized that I had never really written about it in the book, so one of the new devotionals in the expanded, limited version we’re releasing THIS WEEK (April 16th), tells the story of how this verse marked me as a little girl and set me on a trajectory of holding onto light even in the dark places. I hope you’ll sing it with me today and keep holding onto the light with me. #memorymondays #fightingwords #scripture #bibleverses #verseoftheday #inspiration #devotional #ellieholcomb
