JUNIOR HIGH SUNDAY SCHOOL
This past Sunday our lesson was - God is Like Water.
We talked about how God is like water - our souls, the deepest spiritual part of who we are, get thirsty. Not for real water, but for something that will make us come alive. People try to quench this thirst with wild living and partying, with money, with adrenaline rushes; but none of these things will take away the thirst in your soul - Jesus will. That's why he's called the living water because he's alive and he satisfies all our needs - Pictures of God.
Our main verse was Psalm 63:1 - O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water.
Our challenge for the week was to be like receive the living water - Jesus and to make a plan to be like water to someone else - by refreshing, quenching and reviving other people.
