Choose Your Adventure - Week 4

I can be wise by choosing God!

Did you know that every day is full of adventures that we get to choose? Some adventures are small, like choosing which book to read. Others are bigger, like deciding how to react when a family member makes us upset. It’s not always easy to know what is best but there is hidden treasure you can take into every choice: wisdom. Wisdom is a valuable gift that helps people choose what’s best. Together we can choose wisdom, by not choosing sides, choosing our words carefully, choosing to do good, and choosing God!

SONG: I'm Trusting You

DISCIPLE:

Think of a time you have faced a scary challenge or had to make a difficult

decision. Remember what it felt like to be unsure of what you should do and how you had to exercise faith and trust God with a situation. Share your story with your family, then lead them in a time of discussion. We can’t see into the future, and some decisions are really hard to make. When you don’t have the answer, remind yourself: I can be wise by choosing God!

Read today's Bible reference to remind your family you can be wise by choosing God- Proverbs 3:1-8.
