So many avoidable obstacles trip us up when we’re running a self-directed course instead of walking with God. Pondering the path involves thought as well as action, combined with yielding. Life is fast and demanding, but we can choose to slow our pace to a follower’s speed. Ponder the path. Don’t blaze your own trail.
“Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.”—Proverbs 4:26.
