Celebrating God's Faithfulness

Our theme for this week’s Ministry Moment is Celebrating God’s Faithfulness.

Sometimes it can be difficult to see how God is working in the middle of our daily lives. One reason is that life moves so fast. We stay busy with work, school, activities, and responsibilities, and often we don’t slow down long enough to notice what God is doing around us and in us.

Psalm 105:5 reminds us:
“Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles, and the judgments he pronounced.”

Throughout Scripture we see God’s people intentionally remembering His faithfulness. Looking back helps us recognize how God has been present and at work all along.

Over the years I have tried to make it a habit to look back at different seasons in my life and see how God has worked. It has become so important for me to step back and recognize His faithfulness—His faithfulness in my family, in jobs, in relationships, and in so many other areas of life. When we take time to reflect, we often realize that God has been guiding and providing in ways we may not have noticed at the time.

This week, spend some time as a family remembering and celebrating God’s faithfulness. Share with your kids some ways you have seen God work in your own life. Tell stories about times when He provided, guided, or answered prayers.

Then ask your kids: “Where have you seen God at work lately?”

Helping our kids recognize God’s faithfulness in the past helps build their faith and trust in Him for the future.
