🌙 Still Awake?
A little closer to Jesus every evening.

👣 The Next Step
📖 Matthew 2:7–9
“After they had heard the king, they went on their way.”
Matthew 2:9
Sometimes we wish that God would show us the entire path.
Every step.
Every turn.
Every answer.
But most of the time, He does not.
He shows us the next step.
That is exactly what the wise men experienced.
First, they saw the star.
Then they heard the prophecy.
And afterward…
they went on their way.
They did not remain standing still.
They did not discuss endlessly.
They did not wait for a second sign.
They set out.
Perhaps God is speaking to you today as well.
Not through a star.
But through His Word.
Through your conscience.
Or through someone who encourages you.
The question is not whether God speaks.
The question is:
Am I ready to take the next step?
You do not need to know what will happen a year from now.
Trust God for today.
And take the next step.
He asks nothing more.
💭 Think About It
What next step is God showing you right now?
And what is still holding you back?
🙏 Prayer
Dear Father,
thank You for guiding me step by step.
Help me to trust You even when I cannot see the whole path.
Give me courage to take the next step and listen to Your guidance.
I know that You are walking with me.
Amen.
🌙 Sleep well.
Your loving Father knows the way—and guides you step by step.
See you tomorrow.
