Come, Follow Me — August 31–September 6, 2026: A Lamp for the Path We’re On
The psalmist doesn’t ask for a floodlight to show the whole way home — only a lamp, enough light for the next few steps. That has been enough for me all my life.

There is something deeply comforting in the words of King Jehoshaphat, who stood before the Lord and admitted, “we have no might… neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee.” How often we forget that our weakness is not a barrier to God’s help, but an invitation for it. When we stop striving to appear strong and simply turn our hearts toward Him, we find He meets our imperfect efforts with abundant grace. Come sit a while, and let us ponder together what it means to truly seek Him.

Josiah’s people had drifted so far they lost the word of God in His own house. When one priest found it again, it changed a king — and a nation. The scriptures still work mightily in hearts willing to receive them.
When life feels overwhelming, the Lord’s help is often closer than we realize—we just need eyes to see it.
