We've had an exciting all be it gloomy, cloudy Saturday. I can't say any of us behaved the way we should have. I'm sure as God has looked down on us, He would see a lot of the work of the flesh. However, I know some of us are clothed in the righteousness given to us through Christ. Now when God looks down on our behavior, it's like we're standing under Jesus' umbrella and he only sees the righteousness of His Son and the fruits of the Holy Spirit become evident in our lives.
Family Scripture Reading:
"Sing joyfully to the Lord, you righteous; it is fitting for the upright to praise him." Psalm 33:1
Family Discussion Suggestion:
Discuss what it means to be righteous. How does a person sing joyfully? How can we praise our God? See also today's Advent Activity - Christmas Carol Guessing Game.
