Psalm 127:3

                 FOCUSING ON YOUNG PEOPLE

This month’s study is on children or youths of the Bible. These come from different backgrounds, and lived at different times. However, there is a common thread that runs through all of them: they have something to teach us.

Dear reader, you may be just a child, but you are very important in the eyes of your parents, who love you dearly. Even more important are you to God, your heavenly Father!

Do be a good child for that will encourage your parents and give them a lot of joy. Also, if you are a child of God, you will want to be a good example to your siblings and friends, don’t you?

Colour the star for the things a child of God would do –
Do not want to go to Sunday School
Like to fight with brother or sister or classmate
Like to read God’s Word
Stay up late to watch TV on Saturday night
and wake up late for church
Pray (talk to God) every day
Enjoy studying God’s Word in Sunday School
Want to tell others about the Lord Jesus
Want to say “grace” (give thanks to God) before eating Willing to share and help others
Be obedient and respectful to parents
Get angry if you do not get your way
Must always win, or else throw a tantrum
Take other people’s things when no one is watching

Thought: Am I a child of God?
Prayer: Heavenly Father, please remind me that if I am a child of Thine, I will be trust in you for a change in my life so that others can see the difference in me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
