FAMILY DEVOTIONS – ALL LEVELS

Each devotion aligns with your students weekly science lesson putting an emphasis on distinguishing true science from pseudo science. The natural world reveals God’s design in creation while His Word reveals purpose and plan for our lives. Together, they foster wisdom.

What is “Remember These Things”?

Families are encouraged to have a family altar or memory marker. Markers are often placed where they can be seen to remind us of God’s power, provisions, and plans for our lives. We often take the natural world for granted and forget that without all the resources of creation, we would have nothing to meet our physical needs. While we pray for provisions, protection, or guidance, God frequently reveals their presence in the physical world. Science should be a quest to discover all of God’s gracious gifts and provisions for us while scriptures prepare our hearts to receive them.

When God’s people built altars to “remember what God had done” in their life they wanted a physical or visual reminder. In those moments when God intervened in mighty ways; a new altar or marker was constructed. But in truth, there are so many simple things right in front of us, in His Word, and in His daily provisions for our lives that we should also remember to give thanks for the “common gifts.” By “Remembering These Things,” we grow in gratitude with an ability to “give thanks in all things.”
