In ChargeSample

As middle schoolers, it’s can be easy to believe that you don’t have a lot of authority right now. It feels like there is not much you can actually be in charge of in your day-to-day life. But here’s the thing: You have so much more authority than you think! You’re in charge of the way you treat people. You’re in charge of the way you speak to people. You’re in charge of the way you choose to live and interact with others. And if you want to use that author- ity wisely, you can follow Jesus’ guidance here by using your authority to treat others the way you want to be treated.

Memorize this verse today as a reminder of how you can use your authority in good, healthy ways.
