Secret word this week is: LOVE

This week in Highway 45 we discussed the importance of helping others and not thinking of ourselves. It is important to help others out of the goodness of our hearts and not expect anything in return. It isn't always easy helping others, sometimes we don't know how to or we just might not want to, but the bible tells us how important it truly is to help those in need. This week's memory verse is "Each of us should please his neighbor for his good, to build him up. For even Christ did not please himself but, as it is written: "The insults of those who insult you have fallen on me." Romans 15:2-3 (NIV)

All we have to do is ask. We learned about how the Israelites had a problem. They got stuck between the Red Sea and they Egyptian army. Moses prayed to God, and God parted the sea for them and then drown the entire Egyptian army! Read it for yourself in Exodus 13 and 14!

Secret word this week is: Needs

This week in Highway 45 we discussed how important it is not to judge people who are different than us. Jesus hung out with "weird" people. In fact, he was always getting in trouble with the Pharisees because they thought he needed to stop hanging out with weird people and start hanging out with them. Not everyone is who they appear to be, and if you take the time to get to know someone who is weird. You just might find out you have more in common than you thought! This week's memory verse is "Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you." Matthew 7:1-2 (NIV)

Secret word this week is: Powerful

This week in Highway 45 we talked about hate and how no one likes to be hated. Hate doesn't feel good for us, or our enemies. So we shouldn't hate them back, we should respond with love instead. I dared the kids this week to act lovingly toward their enemies. If they don't think they have an enemy, choose someone they find hard to get along with, and do loving things for them. This weeks verse is "You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you" Matthew 5:43-44 (NIV)

Secret word this week is: LOVE

This week in Highway 45 we discussed how we are all different by God's own design. Of course, sometimes we forget that and treat others poorly because they're different from us. It might be harder to accept someone who is different from us, but remember that God made each person unique for a reason. This week I challenged the kids to accept someone who is different from them, spend some time with them, and find one reason they think God made that person uniquely different. This weeks memory verse is "Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God." Romans 15:7

Secret word this week is: TRUST

This week in Highway 45 we discussed the importance of asking for forgiveness and forgiving those even when they don't ask to be forgiven. Sometimes we just aren't aware that we've hurt someone or we don't think we need forgiveness or maybe we are just too afraid to ask for it. But this week I have dared the kids that the next time someone hurts them and doesn't ask for forgiveness, they should treat them with kindness and forgive them anyway. That's what God does. It all goes back to that old familiar saying, treat others the way you would want to be treated. This weeks memory verse is “For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.” Matthew 6:14

This week in 123 Go, we learned to choose good friends. When Paul was here, and serving others, he always had good friends who helped him with his ministry. We need to choose our friends based on character and not if they are "cool" or not. It is important for us to be a good friend to everyone, even if they aren't a good friend to us.

Memory Verse (worth 5 Action Bucks):

"For I am not ashamed of this Good News about Christ. It is the power of God at work, saving everyone who believes..." Romans 1:16a

This week: A second bonus memory verse!

"A friend loves at all times. He is there to help when trouble comes"

Proverbs 17:17 (NIrV)

Secret word this week is: PROUD

This week in Highway 45 we discussed the importance of giving people not once, not twice, but infinite times. Even though many people have wronged us, wither it's a friend or a relative, we should always forgive them just like God has forgiven us. It isn't always an easy task to forgive someone who has hurt us multiple times but Jesus asks us to make a sacrifice that's small in comparison to the huge sacrifice he made for us.

This week's memory verse is:

"Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you." Colossians 3:13

Also don't forget about our movie night this Friday from 6-9 pm. We will be watching Monster's Inc. and enjoying some fun games together.
