The “Who” of Your Life

The “Who” of Your Life

“But Ruth said: “Entreat me not to leave you, Or to turn back from following after you; For wherever you go, I will go; And wherever you lodge, I will lodge; Your people shall be my people, And your God, my God. Where you die, I will die, And there will I be buried. The Lord do so to me, and more also, If anything but death parts you and me.” Ruth 1:16-17.

When Ruth pledged her allegience to Naomi and to the God of Israel, it wasn’t based on, “What ifs?” or circumstances.

It was a faith rooted in her devotion to Naomi and God even to the point of death!

So often, I’ve received emails from people wondering why? “Why this?” or “Why that?”

But honestly, “His ways are higher than my ways and His thoughts are higher than my thoughts.” And I don’t have easy answers for much of the horrendous stuff that happens to us!

But what I do know is our faith is not based on “if this” circumstance was changed then I could serve or “if this” problem didn’t exist then my life would be so much easier!

We tend to look at our circumstances, our problems, our status, our situations. However the faith we’re called to have is a “whatever and where ever” faith!

Let’s stop looking at the “what ifs” and “why that” and start looking to the “Who” of your life!

The “Who” of your life should be Jesus!

And when He is the “Who” of your life– then the rest of your life is “whatever and where ever” for your good and His glory!
