The Page You’re On


By Jackie Overstreet October 4, 2025

Obedience isn’t complicated—it’s alignment.

Obedience isn’t about rules. It isn’t about behaving well enough to earn God’s favor.

Obedience simply means you’re on the same page with Jesus.


Pray more, read more, try harder—that’s the formula, right?

No. That’s just self-help dressed in church clothes.


The real question: are you in rhythm with Him?


Because if you’re flipping through pages of distraction, comparison, or compromise, you’re not aligned—you’re improvising. And improvising life is exhausting.


Here’s the secret nobody tells you: obedience isn’t restriction. It’s redirection. When you open the Word, when you talk to Jesus like He’s actually listening (because He is), you aren’t checking boxes—you’re syncing up with your Creator.


Think about it. Every close relationship only thrives when you’re headed in the same direction. Why would your walk with Christ be any different?


Obedience is choosing alignment over independence. And alignment is where freedom begins.


Focus Point

You can’t walk in freedom while reading from the wrong page. Sync with Jesus.
