Make a habit of being grateful

​We finished up the month in 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 and Exodus 12. In 1 Corinthians 11, Paul talks about taking time to celebrate Communion or the Lord’s Supper. When we eat the bread and drink the cup, we celebrate how Jesus lived, died, and rose again to make us right with God. As we think about what Paul wrote, we’ll also take time to remember that this celebration is rooted in the Passover celebration, where God’s people remembered how God rescued them from being enslaved in Egypt.
 
Bottom Line: Make a habit of being grateful. People often focus on bad habits that they need to stop. However, the best way to stop a bad habit is to replace it with a good one. Replace those sweets with healthy choices. Replace TV with exercise. Replace complaining with gratitude. We pray that kids will start to see that gratitude is a choice that God can help them make— especially when they remember all that Jesus did for us on the cross.
 
Today, we spent time practicing our songs for the Christmas program on December 24th. There will be no new scripture memory verses given out until after our Christmas play is over. For now, kids can still say their verses if they need to catch up with our verses that were given so far this season. 
 
We hope you all will enjoy this beautiful Christmas Season filled with Hope because our Savior came to earth for us to save us because He loved us!
Blessings!
