Reading With the People of God #9 - FaithfulnessSample
Memorization Challenge:
13 Now here is the king you have chosen, the one you asked for; see, the Lord has set a king over you.- Samuel 12:13
Primer:
Today’s readings highlight the theme of faithfulness in unexpected moments. Ruth’s bold actions in approaching Boaz reflect her trust in God’s faithfulness to her, while Boaz’s response shows his faithful commitment to her well-being. In the Gospel, Jesus calls His disciples, showing how faithfulness to God’s calling leads to transformation. These passages challenge us to be faithful to God’s leading, even when it requires boldness and trust in His plan.
Question to reflect on: In what areas of your life is God calling you to step out in faithfulness, trusting His plan even when the outcome is unknown?
