“Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments…”
— Matthew 5:19 NASB1995
⚠️ When You Think It Doesn’t Matter
Jesus doesn’t separate His commands into “big ones” and “little ones.” If He said it, it matters. And when we ignore part of His Word—or lead others to treat it lightly—we’re showing where our loyalty really lies.
Even subtle rebellion teaches others something. Your life is a message. What’s it saying about God’s Word?
🔊 Real Talk:
- Do you treat some of Jesus’ teachings like suggestions?
- Are you encouraging others to follow Him fully—or halfway?
✨ Try This:
Ask yourself before every action this week: “Would this teach someone to obey Jesus—or to compromise?”
✍️ Prayer:
Jesus, help me take all Your words seriously—not just the ones that are easy. Let me be someone who teaches others, by how I live, to follow You with everything. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
