What If...नमूना

The Bible is full of really important stories. But sometimes when we read these stories of people who lived such a long time ago, we're not sure how their stories relate to our lives today. So let's take one of their stories and see how it relates to your story, and God's story too.

THEIR STORY

Take some notes about the story in today's passage of Scripture, Matthew 20:1-16.

• Who is this story about? (There might be more than one person!)
• What happens to them?
• What do they learn?
• How is God involved in their story?

YOUR STORY

Now think about your story.

• Who did you relate to most in the story you just read and why?
• Have you ever experienced anything similar to the story you just read?
• How is your story different from the story you just read?
• Have you ever had to learn a similar lesson?
• Has God ever been involved in your story in a similar way?

GOD'S STORY

So, what is the story God is trying to tell, both in the story you just read and in the story of your life right now? You can find it if you look for the ways your stories overlap.

NEXT STEPS

• Making things right looks like seeking equity, not equality. How do you see that happening in this passage?
• Where do you see a need for equity in your school or your community? What can you do to help create this balance?
• Ask God to help you see places around you where inequity exists. Talk to God about what you can do to make these wrongs right.
