Day 18 | Family Ties

READ

I John 3:1 (NLT)

“See how very much our heavenly Father loves us, for He calls us His children, and that is what we are!”

REFLECT 

You were adopted into God’s family. You were created for meaningful relationships. Your spiritual family is even more important than your physical family because it will last forever. Being included in God’s family is the highest honor and greatest privilege you will ever receive.

RESPOND

Thank God for making you a member of His family. Think of your brothers and sisters in Christ on the mission field, in other places around the world, and right here at your church. Thank God for the blessings you have received from them. Consider ways you can bless your church family and future generations as we live theMission together.

WRITE

We’re not talking powerful prose or professional poetry. Simply write a word, sentence, phrase, or paragraph that helps you remember what God said to you. We would love to hear how God uses these devotionals in your life. Email your thoughts to next@themission.net and post on our socials. We would love to hear from you.

May God bless you today!

Our mission is to know God and help people follow Jesus here, there, and everywhere.
