AIM HIGHER

Season Description

Season Four of Down Gilead Lane solves the mystery of Grace’s accident! In this season, the kids decide to take matters into their own hands, and “”Operation Lemonade”” is put into action. Pretty much everybody in Coleraine knows something about that night, but why don’t they want to talk about it? The kids are going to find out!

Today’s Story

Tiffany’s attitude goes to a new altitude when she takes Justin’s seat for a jet plane ride. It’s true! First, she “forgets” to give him a message about getting there early to prepare. Then she shows up in his place. 

Back on the ground Justin's dealing with other issues too. 

Picture this: Taking photos for the Coleraine Quarterly is Lauren's favorite hobby. But since the reporter, Janet Grey, noticed Justin developing photography skills, she seems sad.

HOW ABOUT YOU…  Have you ever been jealous of a friend because they were better at something you really like to do? Did you act on that jealousy by pulling away from them and sulking?

CHECK THIS OUT… “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men.” (Colossians 3:23) this is a good verse to memorize. Read it again…

It’s the best! Finding a hobby or sport we’re better at than most people. But what happens when you discover someone’s even better than you?

Be honest. It’s hurts! Maybe it even takes the joy away from doing it. So we stop. Maybe we’ll hold a grudge against the person that ruined the fun we were having.

But God says do everything you do for His pleasure – not your own. You will find greater joy in sharing your talents with others who aren’t as good as you. Maybe even make new friends.

Celebrate today the gifts and talents God saw right to bless you with. You’ll enjoy life more and be a better friend to everyone else.
