Get the appDo Something—High SchoolSample
It’s not hard to pretend. We pretend we studied really hard for the test—when we barely cracked a book. We can pretend we ran our fastest gym—when really, we barely broke a sweat. We can tell ourselves all kinds of things, maybe even convince ourselves that it’s true—when the reality is, it’s all one big act. This verse the apostle Paul wrote to the church in Rome tells us to stop pretending. Because we CAN pretend to love others and maybe even make it look genuine, but Paul knows, that love isn’t just about how it looks on the outside. It’s about what we allow it to do to ourselves internally. We can pretend our way through faith. Or we can really go after the good stuff. Be the kind of person where what people see on the outside matches who we are on the inside. No pretending necessary. Today, if you find yourself pretending to care or love or serve, take a minute and get your heart to line up with your actions. Don’t just pretend to love others, like Paul says. But really love them.

About this Plan

We’re going to discover how much Jesus cares about injustice and how we can do something in response.
