Some decisions feel costly because you cannot yet see what waits on the other side. You may only see the disruption, the uncertainty, and everything you are being asked to leave behind.
In this message, Pastor Tim Dilena looks at the different choices made by Ruth and Orpah. One returned to what was familiar. The other stepped into an unknown future, choosing faithfulness even when the road offered no guarantees.
Through Ruth's story, this message explores what it means to place your everyday life before God. It is an invitation to move beyond comfort, trust God with what you cannot yet understand, and choose the path that leads toward His greater purpose.
