This week begins a three-week study of Malachi, the last of the Old Testament prophets. The first lesson is “Love Wholeheartedly”, which teaches us what matters to God.
It matters to Him for us to know that He loves us, and it matters to God that we honor Him. The lesson is about what matters to the Lord. We want to make it about what matters to us.
This has me thinking about opening the lesson with an illustration of “It’s what matters!” as seen by people in the world today. For example, a cyclist in the Tour de France prologue suffered some setbacks, "But I've got the yellow jersey, it's what matters." This jersey signifies that he is the overall leader.
Have any of you heard of a game called “It’s What Matters!”? It might serve as an opening if I can figure out how the game works.
