🌟 Day 4 — Light for the Path Ahead
Scripture:
“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”
— Psalm 119:105 (KJV)
There are seasons when the future feels blurry—when you can’t see far enough ahead to feel confident or calm. Anxiety often makes the unknown feel threatening. Instead of wondering what good might unfold, your mind runs through every possible fear, every worst-case scenario.
But Scripture reminds us that God never promised a spotlight.
He promised a lamp.
A lamp shows just enough for the next step, not the whole road. And as frustrating as that can feel, especially when you’re anxious or overwhelmed, it’s also incredibly tender. God isn’t asking you to handle the whole journey. He’s asking you to trust Him with the next small step.
Often the reason we feel stuck is because we think we need a complete picture before we can move. But God’s guidance meets us gently, moment by moment.
Just enough light to keep going.
Just enough truth to steady our hearts.
Just enough grace for today.
And that’s enough.
You don't need to know exactly how everything will work out. You don’t need to see ten steps ahead. You don’t even need to feel brave. Jesus simply invites you to take the next step in His light—whatever that step looks like today.
Maybe your next step is rest.
Maybe it’s asking for help.
Maybe it’s praying one honest prayer.
Maybe it’s choosing truth over the loudest lie.
Maybe it’s just breathing deeply and whispering, “Lord, guide me.”
The path might feel unclear, but God’s Word is steady. His presence is constant. His light will always be enough for the step right in front of you. You don’t have to figure out the whole journey to keep moving—you only need to trust the One who walks with you.

🙏 Prayer
Lord, thank You for lighting my path, even when I can’t see the whole road. Help me to trust You with the steps ahead. Calm my anxious thoughts and remind me that Your presence is enough for today. Guide me gently, one moment at a time, and help me rest in the truth that You are leading me with love. Amen
