This is the beginning of a sentence that could be answered in infinite ways. In fact, I'm convinced that all the languages of the world do not have enough words to exhaustively define God. Over the next few weeks we will focus on the most simple and profound ways to finish that sentence. This week we are learning that "God is holy."
In the life of your child (and every believer) understanding this truth is critical. Follow me for a second, if you don't understand that God is holy you don't know that you are not. If you don't know you are not holy then you don't realize that you are a sinner that needs help. If you don't realize you are a sinner that needs help you don't look for help. If you don't look for help, you'll never find Jesus.
This week try to create wonder in your kids heart about how holy God is. Think about how perfectly he made the world. How all of the world works together to sustain life...from rain, to gravity, to the sun. Think about how he sacrificed so much (His son, Jesus) to chase you down to have you enter into his family and home that He is preparing. Get excited about God to help illustrate this truth! Without a holy God you/we have no hope! Reading Psalm 24 may help you out.
This week's details:
Scripture: Isaiah 6-7
Life Point: God is holy!
