Second Day:
Pray

SILENTLY ask yourself the following:

When it comes to telling the truth, are you a good example to other family members?
When it comes to telling the truth, are you a good example to your friends, neighbors, fellow workers, bosses, teachers, government leaders, etc.?
How do you think that God views your behavior as it pertains to your truthfulness?

Read I John 1:9 aloud:
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."

All family members close your eyes and silently name to God any unwise acts or unwise decisions that need to be confessed.

Don’t forget to practice your memory verses.
In the spaces below, write down several words that best describe what your family needs to do to conform to God's Word about truth.
