I became a Christian a couple of months ago and nothing about my daily life looks any different. What am I supposed to do now?

“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”

This is the longest psalm in the Bible, an enormous structured meditation by someone who had clearly spent years with the scriptures rather than an afternoon. The lamp image is worth taking literally: an oil lamp in the ancient world lit the next step of a path, never the whole road. The psalm assumes slow, daily, unspectacular use, which is exactly what growth actually looks like.

“And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.”

Luke describes what the first Christians actually did after three thousand of them came to faith on a single day. There is nothing exotic in the list: teaching, shared life, meals, prayer. It is the plainest description in the New Testament of how new believers grew, and the ordinariness of it is the encouragement. Nobody in that account was left to work it out privately.
