Lighthouse have special meaning for me. I have always been facinated by them and have had the opportunity to be near them most of my life. A couple of years ago the Lord showed me some interesting insights into Lighthouses.
The Lord is steadfast, just like a lighthouse – standing forever against the elements – the wind, rain, sun, hurricanes and gales. He is forever faithful to show us the areas of danger in our path and a light piercing the darkness, forever calling through the fog of life showing us the way. Psalm119:105 Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.
A light house is usually cylindrical to allow for the trials of life to not stick to it. It is a never ending surface as far as the east is from the west. They are usually painted white with red stripes. The white is for the pure love of the Lord and the red stripes are both the measure of His love for us(John 3:16) and a sign of His arms of love wrapped around us.
The beacon atop a lighthouse is like the Lord’s eyes continually upon us watching out for us. PS 33:18 But the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,
