Just my watch can pinpoint where I am globally while also calculating my steps and current progress. Pictures I take on my phone are time-stamped and also reveal the exact location. If you have devices like these, you also recognize that everywhere you go is being tracked and distances are constantly updated and measured. I admit I love knowing these details especially the distance I travel each day. Often people talk about faith as a journey, but many throughout history have said the longest journey one can trek is from the head to the heart. While physically that distance is roughly 12-14 inches, moving from the head to the heart means transforming intellectual knowledge into a lived experience with heart-changed actions.
