Follow

When we live as disciple of Jesus Christ, we gain more than we lose...

 

 

In Sunday School this week, we'll be talking about what it means to follow Jesus on our Journey of faith. 

 

There are times when we want to follow Jesus, and do as our faith tradition tells us we should do...  But there are also times when it is so much easier to do what our friends, our media, and our desire for an easy way tells us...

 

Have you ever been in one of those situations?  Where peer pressure gets the best of you?

-Maybe you go along with something you know is wrong...

-Maybe you watch as someone gets bullied... 

-Maybe a little white lie wouldn't hurt anything...

-Maybe you came across something online that you shouldn't have been looking at...

 

We all fall into behaviors that don't fit in with our Christian beliefs.  The trick is to recognize it, and turn away from it.  Turn to doing what we know is right, instead.

 

What can you do this week to follow God a little closer?

I'm going to work on finding time to pray - to ask God to help me follow more closely.

Can I pray for you, too?
