Quick Questions
Read Proverbs 14:30 To find out it there's something rotten in here.
GOD SAYS
What is one thing you would love to be able to do?
1 Play baseball better that Babe Ruth
2 Dance like one of the famous ballet dancers
3 Stop time by touching your index finger to your nose
4 Be a famous actor and win an Oscar award
5 Sing better than any famous rock star
I DO
Wanting to do something well is cool, but when you focus all your energy on being better than someone else, that person becomes your enemy. It's really hard to love someone you're a;ways trying to outdo!
Do your self a favor - don't try to be better than any of your friends. Thank God for putting them in your life and be the best you can be!

Devotions in Motion (Session 5) Jealousy
Quick Questions
Go to Romans 16:17 - 19 and get ready to party!
GOD SAYS
Imagine you're at a party. The first person you meet is reading magazines, and as she looks through them, she comments on how this model has the perfect nose, that one has perfect hair and that model has the perfect body. How would you begin to feel about the way you look?
The next person you meet is a guy who is talking about a pair of $300 basketball shoes that he is going to get with lights and space-age materials and glow in the dark soles. How would you begin to think about your shoes?
The next person you meet is watching MTV, talking about how if you don't dress like the people on MTV, you just ain't cool. How would you begin to feel about your clothes?
I DO
Do you think hanging out with envious people is a good idea or a bad one? If you hang out with people who are always complaining about how they don't have cool clothes or the right house. Their attitudes will start to rub off on you and make you unhappy with life and yourself.
Are you happy with who you are? Are your friends? Ask God to help you and your friends be content with everything he has given you.

Fast Facts
Flip to Philemon 6,7. Can you find it with your eyes closed?
GOD SAYS
Kelly and Mike were friends from school. Every day they would eat lunch together, and Mike would make Kelly laugh by throwing Jell-O squares in the air and catching them in his mouth. After school they would walk home together, kicking the pebbles in the road and telling each other jokes. Sometimes they would hang out on Saturdays, but every Sunday Kelly went to church. Mike had never gone to church and wondered what it was all about, but Kelly never invited him.
I DO
The best thing you could ever do for a friend is show him/her the way of Christ. Who are your non-christian friends? Write their names down somewhere that you will see them every day and pray for them. Invite them to church, pray for your meals in front of them, and let them know how in love with Jesus you are!
