Advent Day 30

 God became a child so that through his life, death, and resurrection, we might become the children of God.

For further study:  1 John 3:1 - 3


For parents and children:  Ask your children to tell you what a story is.  Ask them to tell you what their favorite story is and why it is their favorite story.  Tell them that one of the reasons we like stories is because they help us understand the story of our own lives.  Ask one of your children to tell the story of his life as if no one in the room knew him.  Then tell him that the Christmas story is the most important story ever and that because it is, it is meant to be the story of our lives.  God's story tells us who were and who God is, and it tells us of the new identity, "the children of God,' that he gives everyone who believes in him.
