From Now On

DAY 9 OF 28

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

  • What common arguments do you hear for why Jesus can't give us peace?
  • How is Jesus giving you assurance in your hurt right now?
  • Talk to God about any messages you've heard or doubts you have about Jesus' presence in your life. Ask Jesus to provide confidence that he is with you.

About this Plan

From Now On

During his time on Earth, Jesus' message was clear—from now on, things will be different. Jesus spent his life showing people how God wanted to connect with them and help them connect with each other. In this 4-week devotional series from Grow Curriculum, we'll explore stories from the Gospels and discover the life Jesus invites us into and how following Jesus can completely change our lives.
