The Making OfExemplo
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.
- 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
- Are you ever tempted to be arrogant? How do you handle it when this happens?
- What's a situation you can practice humility in today?
- Talk to God about times you're tempted to think more highly of yourself than you do those around you. Ask for help showing humility in those relationships.

As we watch our favorite movies, we may not realize all of the work that went into making the cinematic masterpiece. In the same way, we might expect our relationship with God to look like a finished product when it's still in the making. In this 4-week devotional series from Grow Curriculum, we'll see how our habits behind the scenes help us grow the faith we want to see.
