Day 15: Read Matthew 1:24-25 (Disclaimer: The first part of verse 25 mentions the timing of Mary and Joseph consummating their marriage. If you don’t want to discuss the meaning of this term, feel free to just read the ending of the verse). Joseph obeyed the Lord by doing exactly as the angel had commanded him! Do you ever struggle with obeying the Lord?

Activity: God has an amazing plan for your life! Pray and ask the Lord to help you obey Him! Talk with your parents about an area in which you struggle to obey. Did you know that even parents have to obey God, and they understand how challenging obedience can be! Your mom and dad can help and encourage you as you grow to follow Jesus! With their help, write out or illustrate a plan for obeying God in the area in which you struggle.
