Making Memories: Past, Present, and Future
Learning to be God's light in the world!
Lesson
This Sunday’s lesson is "Abraham and Sarah," based on Genesis 15:1-5; 18:1-15; and 21:1-7. This story introduces the children to Abraham and Sarah (or as also known Abram and Sarai) along with eventually the birth of their son Isaac. In this story, they will learn about God's covenant (promise) with Abraham. They have been through an incredible journey and their story continues in these scriptures. They have had to be faithful to God and these stories are another example where they step out in faith of God's promises. God promises Abram an heir at an old age so this seems impossible, yet their son Isaac was born. This story helps us start thinking about what "impossible" tasks are in front of us and how God is in the midst of that impossibility. In addition, it teaches us that we are all children of God, so descendants of Abraham.
Let us pray: God of promises, We give you thanks for all your promises, including the ones that seem impossible. We are so glad to be part of your family, part of your promise to Abraham and Sarah. Amen!.
