TALK:  Consider some of these ideas

“7 then the Lord God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being.”                (Genesis 2:7)

From the first moment of creation we were created to be in relationship – with God and with others.

  • God made humans to work together.  What was a project you worked on that needed a team?
  • It is easy to difficult to work as a group?
  • What relationships are most important in your life? 
  • Is it east to lean on others for help?

PRAY:  Creator God, you have given us every good thing on earth:  all that we need to live and enjoy this life.  Fill us with gratitude for the advantaged position in which we find ourselves, that we might use our power in service toward you.  In Jesus’ name we pray.  Amen.

BLESS:  May the God of surprise delight you each day.  Amen.
