Summary
As we focus this week on growing in trusting God, today we’ll explore the concept of obedience. Trust and obedience are directly related. Willing, joyful obedience comes from a place of deep-rooted trust in the character and intentions of your God. When we learn to trust the heart of the Father, obedience is a natural response to whatever he asks. May you grow today in your willingness and excitement to quickly obey the Lord as you learn of his love and goodness.
Our Scripture for today comes from Isaiah 1:19, and today's worship is I Have Decided by Forerunner Music feat. Jaye Thomas.

Your gift will be DOUBLED to help more Spanish-speakers connect with God
Two years ago, First15 began a Spanish version called Primeros15. And God is using it to impact many lives. But today, he’s calling us to more.
More Spanish-speaking men and women connecting with him and impacting the culture around them.
That’s why we’ve just launched a summer campaign to deepen the reach and impact of Primeros15 — and why we’re asking you to jump in with us!
We’ve set a $100,000 goal, and a generous $25,000 Matching Grant has been offered to double the impact of any gift given by July 31. So please give to help more Spanish-speakers connect with God.

| 1:07.0 | Throughout our lives we are commanded to obey. |
| 1:11.6 | Whether it's a parent telling us pick that up or don't do that, or a government laying down a law, we acknowledge obedience as a necessary part of life. |
| 1:21.6 | And so often, because we grow up with some sense of the purpose of obedience, we apply our worldly notions of obedience to our |
| 1:29.6 | relationship with God. We see the commands of Scripture or feel a prompting from the Spirit |
| 1:35.4 | and sense a similar tone of command. But the problem with carrying a worldly notion of obedience |

| 1:46.0 | is that no one, no matter how loving, can or will fully care for us the way our Heavenly |
| 1:52.8 | Father does. |
| 1:54.7 | No matter how good the lawmaker, parent, friend, or teacher, no one truly knows the future like God does. |
