493 // Nothing Wasted: How to Know Your Obedience Matters to God (Bible Study and Devotional)

Hey Sis! 🎙️

Today’s episode is an invitation to pour out your devotion—even when it doesn’t make sense to others. We’re continuing our study of Philippians 2:1–11, focusing on verses 5–7, where we reflect on the humility of Christ and the posture we’re called to imitate. From His divine nature to His choice to become a servant, Jesus models a heart surrendered in obedience and love.

We also dive into Day 3 of our Holy Week devotional, Holy Week: Pause. Ponder. Pray. by Thistlebend Ministries, and reflect on the woman who anointed Jesus with oil. Her act may have seemed insignificant—or even wasteful—to others, but it was precious to Jesus.

If you’ve ever second-guessed your obedience or wondered if your quiet offering matters, this episode will remind you: nothing done in love for Jesus is ever wasted. Let it encourage you to lay down your logic and walk in surrender—because even your smallest acts of devotion are part of God’s greater story.
