Though a teaching career she loved and enjoyed was cut short by a hot-tempered student's physical attack, Eliza Hewitt did not grow bitter. She poured out her love for Jesus into writing poems, hymns, and Sunday School material. This particular hymn, "Stepping in the Light," urges us to follow in the steps of the Savior, because His steps lead us in paths of light. Join me as we learn more about Eliza Hewitt and "Stepping in the Light."
