Imagine a hiker deep in the wilderness. The trees are thick, the trail is faint, and the sun has dipped below the horizon. In the absence of landmarks or light, disorientation sets in fast. But a compass, simple and steady, can point that hiker north, even in the dark. That’s what God’s Word does for a believer. When life is overwhelming or confusing, the Bible doesn’t just offer generic encouragement; it reorients us. It shows us where we are and where God is leading. It doesn’t always provide turn-by-turn directions, but it always points to Jesus, the true North.
