This Is Us (Week Five)Sample

DAY FIVE

Welcome to our daily devotional for our new series This Is Us. During this series we are going to journey through our Freedom Church DNA.  Some of you may know that DNA is like the secret code inside you—the thing that makes you, well, you!  You may also know that God created us in His image and wants us to live our best life.

This week we are looking at our Freedom DNA Everything’s a Gift & Warrior Poets. Let's look at Warrior Poets and how Jesus shows us how to live a life that shows others His love, even when things are tough! 

Warrior Poets

We reflect the creator by embracing and expressing creativity. The color of our lives becoming a revolt against the mundane and ordinary. We communicate the Gospel with the life and vibrancy in which it was intended. 

READ:

"The Last Supper" in the Beginners Bible (pages 442-445) or in Matthew 26, Mark 14, Luke 22, and John 13.

Jesus told the disciples that soon they would understand and be filled with joy—even though the disciples would be sad at first.

When we understand that Jesus loves us and is with us always, we can be filled with joy! 

ASK:

Only a creative God could fill us with joy that is never ending. It’s beautiful—it’s like the most beautiful thing you can imagine!  What is the most beautiful thing you can imagine? 

REMEMBER:

So God created human beings in his image. In the image of God he created them. He created them male and female (Genesis 1:27).

SAY:

God created me, 

Magnificent you can see. 

Every cell and part, 

Were designed in His heart. 

From the beginning of creation,

Every clan, tribe, and nation. 

Made in His image, 

With purpose, love, and to encourage. 

Whatever come what may, 

This is my DNA!
