One Body, Many Gifts

One Body, Many Gifts

Read pages 316–317 in The Peace Table: A Storybook Bible or Romans 12:1–8. Talk about the gifts, skills, and talents each person has.   Pray with your body! Sit or stand in place, feet slightly apart, and take a few deep breaths. Put your hands on your stomach and feel it rise and fall with a deep breath. Then praise God with your whole body (stomp feetclap handsreach arms upjump)!  Talk about jobs that need to get done in your home. Do any of you have special tasks to help the family? Take a minute to say thanks for the ways each person helps.
