Is Your Daughter “In” with God?

Posted on Aug 24, 2017   Topic : Inspirational/Devotional

It's normal to want to be part of the "in" crowd, but what's most important is being "in" with God. Share this short devotion with your tween daughter (age 8-12) and remind her that life works best when God is at the center of everything.

Being "In"

There's nothing wrong with being included as a part of a group of girls. In fact, having friends is an important part of your social life, But it is a problem if you're not focused on the most important thing—being "in" with God. He designed your life so that it works best when He is at the center of it. If you're not following God's heart, you're not going in the right direction.

You can still be team captain, know some cool girls, and have some good friends. But first make sure you're "in" with Jesus. Read your Bible. Pray. And pray for your friends. And be sure to ask Him if what you're doing makes Him happy. Then give Him all you've got!

Jesus, it's so easy to get caught up in what others think that I forget to focus on You. Please let my friendship with You be the most important one in my life. I want to be "in" with You! Amen.
