Living at smartphone speed, we are deceived to believe we need all the answers. If you want to go further, do what David did in Psalm 37:23. Do life at a walking pace, with the Word of God in hand to light the path before your feet. If you live like that, you don’t need all the answers, you need only one. What’s the next step?

At one time the Christian life was actually known as “the Way” (Acts 9:2). Living long for God has never been referred to as “the When.”
