Last week at HoneyRock devos we talked about who we are. We started the week off with questions regarding random facts about ourselves such as “Do you know what day of the week you were born? Do you know your blood type?” and then moved into more important truths about who God tells us that we are in His Word. (In an old Mother Goose rhyme it says that "Monday's child is fair of face, Tuesday's child is full of grace, Wednesday's child is full of woe..." and I have tended to assume that when things go wrong in my life there's really no help for it, seeing as I am a Wednesday's child and am therefore "full of woe." So it was good to be reminded that when God looks at me He does not see me as a child of woe, but as His child, precious and valuable!)
On Wednesday each person wrote their name on a piece of paper and taped it up around the fireplace. Then we broke into small groups and looked up some different passages from Scripture such as Colossians 3:12-17, Colossians 1:9-14, Philippians 2:12-16, Ephesians 2:4-10, 19-22 and several others and found different words that God uses to describe us. We each wrote one of those descriptions on another piece of paper and taped it up by someone else’s name.
