Parents: Have you followed up with your children this week? God called Joel to prophesy to the Southern Kingdom of Judah in the middle of an invasion of locusts and a drought. Joel said God was judging the people for their sin. Joel told them to repent. God would rather forgive His people than punish them. God used locusts and drought to get Judahs attention. They had turned from God, and the prophet Joel called them to repent. Like Joel, Jesus calls sinners to repent. Jesus died and was resurrected so repentant people could experience forgiveness (Luke 24:46-47). Repentance is an ongoing part of the Christians life. Are you teaching your children what it means to continually walk away from the things of this world and turn back to Jesus?
