The Sound of Obedience
Ruth 1:16-18; Proverbs 3:5-6
Ruth's words to Naomi echo through centuries: "Where you go, I will go." This wasn't blind optimism but radical obedience born from trust. She chose the uncertain path of faith over the comfortable path of familiarity. True joy flows from surrender—from decreasing so Christ can increase. Obedience doesn't require us to see the entire staircase; we only need to take the first step. God calls us to walk by faith, not by sight, trusting that He removes obstacles and makes our paths straight. What is God asking you to surrender today? Your obedience, even in small things, creates space for joy to flourish in ways you cannot yet imagine.
