You can show you care about others by walking away from a fight

​Hi Reign Forest Friends,
 
For week three, we head back to Genesis 26:1-6, 12- 22, 26-31. Isaac moved to a region where he reclaimed the wells that had belonged to his father, Abraham. For years no one had cared about the wells until they were reopened, then everyone started fighting over them. Instead of fighting, Isaac decided to give away the wells in order to make peace. Isaac simply walked away from what was rightfully his. And by walking away from the fight, those people changed their opinion about Isaac and decided to trust him.
 
Bottom Line: You can show you care about others by walking away from a fight. Sometimes creating peace with someone means walking away even if we’re not wrong. Often it takes a stronger person to have the self-control to walk away. We pray that kids will learn how they can choose peace when they want to argue and fight.
 
Bible Memory: “So let us do all we can to live in peace. And let us work hard to build each other up” (Romans 14:19, NIRV).
 
Have a great week!
Blessings,
The Reign Forest Team
