Today in Insight we completed our series “God of Our Emotions”, a 6 week look at portions of the book of Psalms, exploring how we can connect with God through all of our emotions. Sometimes we think that it is only the “good” emotions that God relates to us with, but we read the highly powered emotional language of the Psalms in which the writer is bringing everything he has to God and letting God speak into them. So we took Joy, Anger, Sadness/Depression, Hope & Desire, and today was Awe & Wonder…
What makes you say Awesome?? What takes your breath away each day??
“All together now—applause for God! Sing songs to the tune of his glory, set glory to the rhythms of his praise. Say of God, “We’ve never seen anything like him!” Take a good look at God’s wonders— they’ll take your breath away.” -Psalm 66.1-2,5 (The Message)
We had an activity with the students to draw/paint/write/etc on large mural paper about something that makes the awe inspired and here are a few of their inspirations:
What causes you to be awe inspired…small or big, everyday or every so often??
And there were much more great inspirations!
