For those of you that may have forgotten about the Scriptures we are supposed to be memorizing along with these studies, I want to give them to you again. They are Romans 12:1-2. Learn them and review them, and say them over again and again as you study this series of lessons on using our bodies for the Lord.

In this chapter we will study about our feet, or the path of our feet. In Psalms 119:105 we read, “Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” Keeping this verse in mind, Keeping Our Feet on the Right PathI want to tell you a story about two little boys that went hiking in the woods. They were so taken up with the things that they had seen in the woods, that they had forgotten all about the time. Soon they noticed it was getting dark. They hadn’t realized that they had walked so far in the woods; but they knew that they must find the path and stay close to it, or they would be lost. Suddenly, one of the boys remembered a little flash-light that he had in his pocket. Quickly he got it out and turned it on. As it came on they saw that they were almost leaving the path, but, with the aid of the light, they were able to get back on the path. Then as they walked along, they noticed the light fell on a log, but if they had not seen it, they would probably have fallen over it. The light had saved them from this. Of course, they were able to step over the log. As they went on a little farther, they saw a large hole. They were thankful that the light showed them the hole, because they probably would have fallen in the hole. They went around the hole, but then they stopped short! There in the path just ahead of them was a large snake. You can be sure that they made a big detour around this enemy. Again, this they could do because of the little light. Wasn’t the light a big help! In the dark they may have just stepped right on the snake without seeing it. However, soon they saw their house, and went home safely. Now let’s think again of the Scripture I gave you at the beginning of the lesson. David said, “Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” The Word of God is surely a light or lamp that will show us the path, and where to go. It will also show us the things to reject, or the places our feet should not go. It was important that the little boys had their light; but, oh, it is so much more important that we have our Light, the Word of God, to teach us where to step, as we go through life. Won’t you use the Word to direct your feet so that they, too, will be used for the Lord?

Watch your feet, watch your feet
Where they go
Watch your feet, watch your feet
Where they go

There’s a Father up above
Looking down in tender love
Watch your feet, watch your feet
Where they go.
