There are two ways to move through the world.
One is fast.
The other is certain.
“Let not your heart be troubled.”
It sounds like comfort—but it is something more demanding than that.
Because Christ does not say, nothing will go wrong.
He says, do not let your heart be ruled by it.
And that requires something we are not very good at:
trust.
In today’s Daybreak, that tension plays out in two very different worlds.
In the Gospel, everything is calm, direct, and unhurried:
“I am the way, and the truth, and the life.”
There is no confusion. No scrambling. No second-guessing.
And then there is His Girl Friday—a world of speed, urgency, overlapping voices, and decisions made faster than they can be understood.
Phones ringing. Words flying. Truth getting buried in the rush.
Between the two, a question emerges:
Are we moving quickly because we must…
or because we don’t know where we’re going?
