FAMILY FAITH SHARING QUESTIONS FOR NOV. 21st
Christ the King - Luke 23:35-43

In today’s Gospel we hear the story of Jesus on the cross. God asked Jesus to do something very hard so that we would be saved from our sins. Jesus became man and came to earth and died on the cross for our sins. Even when Jesus was suffering on the cross, he still was kind and good. Jesus forgave the thief and told him he would be with Jesus in paradise. Can you think of a time when you had to do something that was hard, but you did it anyway, because it was the right thing to do? Share what that
was.
Think about some people who do things that are difficult, but do them anyway because it is a good thing to do. How can you know what it is that God wants you to do? Make the sign of the cross and remember that Jesus died on the cross for us. Tell Jesus how much you love Him. Tell Jesus thank you for saving us.
