Step by Step: Growing in Faith, One Step at a Time. Sample

Have you ever seen God do something really cool in your life? Maybe God gave you a gift or a talent you use to help others, or God taught you something through reading Scripture, or you grew closer to God when you went through something hard. Chances are that as you’ve seen God do something in your life, you’ve grown to become more like Jesus, too.

You might have become more loving, or more patient, or more kind, because that’s who God is!

In the same way God works in our lives, God works in others, too. God is always working for good in our lives, and always working to help us become more like Jesus.

So today, think about someone in your life. Maybe it’s a friend, a family member, someone you live with, a teacher, a coach, or a small group leader. Ask them about one thing God has done in their life that helped them learn more about who God is or taught them more about Jesus. Then, this week, remember to point it out when you see God at work in the lives of the people around you.
