It’s easy to think “church” is something we attend. Same place, same time, same routine each week.

But Scripture reminds us it’s so much more than that. It’s people walking together, listening for God’s voice, and making space for him to move.

That’s why our prayer this year matters so much: “God, my answer is “yes.” What is your invitation?”

Saying yes to God is about showing up with an open heart and a willingness to follow, even when his direction stretches us.

Psalm 40:8
I take joy in doing your will, my God, for your instructions are written on my heart.

Notice the word joy. Obedience isn’t meant to feel heavy. When God’s ways are written on our hearts, following him becomes something we want to do, not something we feel forced to do.

When you keep saying yes in small moments, God begins to shape your whole life.

As you reflect today, take a moment to ask: “God, where are you inviting me to say yes today?” Then listen, and take a step in that direction.

Prayer:
God, I want my life to say “yes” to you. Write your ways on my heart, and help me hear your voice. I desire to follow you with joy, so please give me the courage to respond, even when it feels uncomfortable. I trust you with my next step. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen.
