One Step at a Time

"The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and He delighteth in his way" (Psalm 37:23).

We often make a great mistake, thinking that God is not guiding us at all, because we cannot see far in front. But this is not His method. He only undertakes that the steps of a good man should be ordered by the Lord. Not next year, but tomorrow. Not the next mile, but the next yard. Not the whole pattern, but the next stitch in the canvas.
