Good Morning!
Let’s focus our day by spending some time with Jesus before it begins.
WORSHIP. Pick a song from one of our Spotify Playlists and let it play in the background.
THANK. Write down 3-5 things you’re thankful for in the last 24 hours.
READ. Our Scripture Focus is Ruth 4:14. Try memorizing it this week!
Today’s reading is from Ruth 3:14-18 (Going Deeper: Psalm 37:3-7, 16-29 & Philippians 4:4-9)
THINK. A Thought from Pastor Dave…
Boaz tells Ruth to leave while it was dark not because anything happened that night, but because he didn’t want anyone to think something had. Ruth had asked Boaz to be her family redeemer, but there was someone else who technically would be first in line who he was going to discuss the matter with. Boaz shows us that it isn’t just “God’s will” that matters - but also God’s way and God’s time. Don’t take the shortcut today. Don’t rush the process. That’s what waiting on God is all about. Doing the right thing, the right way, at the right time. God is faithful to provide for the needs of those who trust Him and wait for Him to work in His way and time.
Be faithful in the waiting today. God will take care of you today as He works out tomorrow.
LIVE. One practical way to understand and apply the Bible is the SOS method. Ask…
S: What does this passage say about God, and what does it say about me?
O: What am I being invited to obey?
S: What can I share with those around me?
PRAY. Pray for yourself, a family member, a lifegroup/church friend, someone who doesn’t know Jesus, and the nations. Pick one each day or pray through them all every day.
SHARE. Stay focused with a friend! Invite them to text “FOCUS” to (586) 200-6277.
Stay focused on Jesus today, and make it a great one!
