“The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps.” Proverbs 16:9 ESV Sometimes we want God to show us the entire route before we take the first step. We want the full plan, the final destination, and every turn mapped out ahead of time. But faith rarely works that way. Most of the time, God doesn’t reveal the whole road. He simply gives us the next step, the next turn, the next act of obedience. And as we keep walking, the path becomes clearer. Faith isn’t seeing the entire journey. It’s trusting the One who’s driving. Follow for more hand-drawn stories about faith. What next step is the Lord asking you to take?
