Amos-Week of June 23

Week of June 23^rd, 2013

Share highs and lows.  Each day gather with your family and share your high and low of the day.  Listen to each other and hear what each person is saying.  If you live alone, journal your highs and lows, or choose a friend or family member that you can call and share them with.

Read the assigned bible verse(s) together. 

Talk about the verse.  How does it relate to the highs and lows? Talk it through as a family…or, if you are a family of one, journal your answer.  Unpack the verse a bit.             What does it mean in your own words? How might it relate to where you are today in your highs and lows?

Pray for one another’s highs and lows, for your family, and for the world. Simply talk to God, thank Jesus for the good, and ask the Holy Spirit for guidance in specific problems.  If you would like, pray for the suggested prayer concerns.

Bless one another. Trace the sign of a heart on each other’s forehead or palm and say, May God give you the courage to share his word.
