Things to Think About…
How do you currently go about deciding what is right or wrong for your life? How might you change that process in light of The Story?
When (if ever) in your life have you felt like God declared you “righteous”? What was the situation? What were you doing or not doing?
Spend some time this week making a list of ways God has blessed you in your life… people, buy provision, work, health, talents, skills. etc. Then spend time asking God how He would like you to use these blessings to be a blessing to others.
What are some ways in your life and community that you could further live out the reality that you are a part of God’s family?
