John 12:35
Then Jesus told them, "You are going to have the light just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, before darkness overtakes you. The man who walks in the dark does not know where he is going.
Some are comfortable being blind even though they are being led aimlessly by others who are also heading for a fall. Some know the difficulty of being in the dark and not being able to make another safe step forward. They have no other chioice but to follow the lost leader. They are heading no where and yet they refuse to go the right way.
The only way we will know where we are headed to is, when we are led by the Great Shepherd. We like lost sheep will not know what is ahead of us, if we do not have the Great Shepherd leading us. The path is likened to darkness before us. If we just keep going, darkness will overtake us soon. When darkness overtakes us, we will fall and be destroyed. We are in that inevitable stage where we do not exactly know where we are heading. It will just be a guessing game without the leading of the Great Shepherd. The greatest guessing game is knowing, if you really belong to God or not? Here is a hint for you.
1 John 2:11
But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness and walks around in the darkness; he does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded him
