To Follow by faith alone is to follow blindly.

GRATITUDE
Trusting something completely and looking at it closely are different acts, and one can quietly replace the other. When belief asks you to stop looking, you lose the ability to tell whether you are still going somewhere you want to go. That holds for a teaching, a plan, a person, or your own oldest certainty. Conviction is not the same as sight.
Pick one thing you currently accept without checking. Ask what you would expect to see if it were true, and then go and look. Trust that survives a look is sturdier than trust that was never tested.
Where do you follow along without checking anything yourself?
Free, with nothing to buy inside it.
