Picture
Between Friday and today, we discussed how God reveals himself to us through divine revelation in several ways. Divine revelation is the way God makes himself known to us. I used the joke about the man who kept thinking God was on His way to save him during the storm. He rejected several helpers, telling them, "Thanks, but God will save me!" After he died, he asked God why He didn't save him. God told him, "Hello! I did attempt to save you! I sent you the newscaster to warn you, your neighbors on the raft to get you, AND the Coast Guard in the helicoptor to rescue you."

Sometimes we are so consumed, that we don't realize God is reaching out to us in these ways:
     1. Through nature and creation
     2. Through others (Jesus included)
     3. Through self-knowledge and the Bible

Homework: Based on the activity on page 15, create a timeline of at least 7-10 events between birth and today in which you believe God revealed Himself to you using the 3 ways above. These events can be based on something someone else experienced. For example, even though my brother needed an emergency surgery, I still felt God was revealing Himself during this moment in my life through my brother. Your timeline should be no larger than a sheet of computer paper. Each event needs a title, a colored picture or scene, and a one sentence reason how God revealed Himself in that moment.

This is due on Wednesday. Neatness and professionalism is part of your grade. STUDY for Wednesday's test!!
