Hi Ashland Family!
We're back with another week of our Camping With God family devotional!
This week we're learning that God has chosen a people to belong to Him. God chose the people of Israel to be His special people, and through Jesus, everyone who trusts in Him is invited to be part of God's family too!
📖 Read Together
Read Exodus 19:1–6, then 1 Peter 2:9–10 as a family. Talk about what it means to belong to God and how being part of His family changes the way we live.
💬 Talk Together
Here are a few questions to help your family continue the conversation:
• How do you think the Israelites felt when God chose them to be His people?
• What does it mean to you that God calls you part of His family?
📝 Family Activity
Celebrate being part of God's family! Spend some time together sharing a special treat and what makes each member of your family unique and special. Then remind one another that God knows each of us by name, loves us deeply, and has called us to follow Him. Finish by praying together and thanking God for making you part of His family.
🏕️ Weekly Challenge
We learned that God has always had a family, special people who He loves very much. This week, take some time to make a family tree together and explore where your family came from!
Thank you for faithfully leading your children to know and follow Jesus. We pray that, as you talk about what it means to belong to God's family this week, your whole family will grow in confidence that you are deeply loved, chosen, and called by Him.
