The power of sharing came into play in God's word during our lesson on Sunday. We discussed how God asks us to be prepared to do good and be ready to share whether at church, school, or home. We also touched on a story regarding a very wealthy man that came to Jesus and said he wanted to feel his great presence and was told by Jesus to sell his possessions and share with others so that he could then love Jesus and truly feel him. It was a great message for the children that it is hard, even for grown ups to share worldly possessions, but if we ask God to help, he will be with us to make it easier to know how to share. Such a great and powerful lesson for this age, and all the children had wonderful ideas of how to contribute.
Our sharing project included a bead clip that REALLY got all the kids engaged.....even if we had a few dozen beads "crash" to the floor to pick up, such is the price to watch the kids really get creative and share amongst their friends.
Of course, we always seem to run out of time, but we did get to finish with some music time with Betsy. The kids are becoming more confident, not only with the bible songs, but singing out loud and having fun with the music within a group. Thank you to Betsy for this music time!!
