Step by step
“First steps,” whether we are children or adults, are natural, yet for some of us, venturing forward on a new path might sometimes be accompanied by fear. But whether we’re leaving home for the first time, starting a new job or a new family, we can all go forward in the confidence that God’s ever-present love, guidance, and care are with us every step of the way.
I learned to rely on this care at a very young age. I clearly remember when I was in fifth grade and was afraid I wouldn’t be able to handle the next step of sixth grade! My mother calmed my fears by reminding me: “It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect” (Psalm 18:32). This Psalm, in line with the teachings of Christ Jesus, supported me all the way through college graduation, and it didn’t stop there.
I trusted that infinite Divine Love, God, held me, this new child, and all in His powerful governance of good.
