Johnson: light enough to walk by

Meditation:
    That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
    —John 1:9 (KJV)
Quotation:
    [Christians], at their best, know that often they don’t know. They do not have all the answers. They do not have God in their pocket. We cannot answer every question that any bright boy in the back row might ask. We have only light enough to walk by.
    ... Howard A. Johnson (1915-1974), “The Vocation of the Anglican Communion (Theme Address),” included in Anglican Congress 1963: Report of Proceedings, Eugene Rathbone Fairweather, ed., Editorial Committee, Anglican Congress, 1963, p. 232 (see the book)
    See also John 1:9; Job 26:14; 42:3; Ps. 131:1; 139:6; Rom. 11:33
