Elementary: Weekly Devotional

Respect – Week 1

Who is one person that you look up to?

Parents, talk to your kids about what it means to be respectful.

Explain that Respect is a way of treating or thinking about someone. All kinds of people deserve our respect, such as authority figures, like teachers or police officers, or someone older than you, like a grandparent. You show respect by being polite and kind.

Read Exodus 20:3

Who should we love/respect more than anyone else?

Read Romans 12:9-11

Talk about the different ways these verses say that we can show respect.

Close in prayer by asking God to always help us put Him first and show respect to others.
