Jesus Teaches Me to Obey
📖 “If you love Me, keep My commandments.”
—John 14:15 (NKJV)
Obeying can feel hard sometimes. You may not always understand why you are told to do something. But Jesus teaches that obedience is connected to love. When you love Him, you want to follow what He says.
Jesus obeyed His Father perfectly. Even when things were difficult, He chose to do what was right. When you follow Jesus, He helps you obey, too—whether it is listening to your parents, being kind to others, or choosing what is right when no one is watching.
Obedience is not about being perfect. It is about trusting that God’s ways are good. When you choose to obey, your heart grows stronger, and your relationship with Jesus deepens.
Jesus is patient when you make mistakes. If you disobey, you can ask Him to forgive you and help you try again. He loves it when you choose to follow Him.
Prayer:
Jesus, help me obey You because I love You. Teach me to trust that Your ways are best. When I make mistakes, forgive me and help me grow. 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.
