All of history is God’s story. Our place in history is not random. It is no accident that we were born into a specific time and place. God appoints the times and places that each of us lives. He raises up individuals and groups of people for His purposes in every historical era. He is able to use people to do immeasurably more than all we ask or dream! Not only is he able, but He wants to do it – not for us, but for His glory!
Family Activity:
Teaching Time: 15 minutes
Materials: journal, pen
Take some time together as a family to dream. Dream about how your family could step into God’s story now. Dream about how God could use your family to change the world for Christ. Write down in a journal your family’s dream of how God could use your family in His story.
Discuss:
- Read Ephesians 3:20. How does this verse make you view your family’s dreams? How do you think God views your dreams?
- How could God use your family now?
Pray:
Ask God to use your family in His story immeasurably more than you can dream.
