Individuality

You were made for a reason! 

This statement is a powerful truth in our lives. God saw this world and He created you uniquely equipped to help be a force of change within it.

You are not like any other person on the face of the earth!

This means that this world, that has seen billions and billions of people live in it, will never see another you.

You were made for a mission!

That means you have a job to do that God has put in front of you. It is an incredible privilege to be a small part of God’s big story. No one is a better example of this truth than John the Baptist. We will learn his part of God’s big story this month.

What are some thing you see in yourself that are unique?

Do you think God wants us all to fit in or to stand out?

What are some ways you fit in and some ways you stand out from your friends? 

Compassion

The one thing that virtually everyone recognizes about Jesus Christ was the way he showed compassion to others. Everything we see on TV and everything anyone tells about success in this world is about how much money we make or how popular we are. Jesus didn’t seek these things. Instead, he touched the people no one would touch and he loved the people that others thought were sinners. He even died for people that hated him enough to kill him. 

Who are the people that you need to love and care for?
