READ

Family worship: Genesis 25:1-11
Private worship: Judges 9-21; Ruth; 1 Samuel 1-4 (Spread your reading throughout the week.)

Discussion questions: What do these passages say about God? What do these passages say about me? What do these passages say about the relationship between God and me?

PRAY

Adoration: God is holy, mighty, gracious, and merciful. Spend time declaring your love for Him.

Confession: Continually confessing your sins to God and asking for His forgiveness will keep you from taking the great price Christ paid on the cross for granted.

Thanksgiving: Express your thankfulness to God for the blessings He has given you. When we consider that we deserve punishment because of our sinfulness, and instead God gives to us His love and mercy, our only response should be one of thankfulness.

Supplication: Pray for the senior adults in your church. Pray that will be spiritual leaders to those who come behind them.

SING

“Christ the Lord Is Risen Today,” no. 270 in The Worship Hymnal
