What we learned:
In today's lesson we learned that Daniel
was one of the many great men of faith. Although he knew that disobeying
a decree meant death, he would not give up his faith, even for his
own life. Having faith in God means to allow Him to control
our lives. If we faithfully obey and give Him our praise, He will
give us the courage to do whatever He wants us to do, or go wherever
He wants us to go. (Scripture used: Daniel 6:6-24) |

Memory Verse:
"For it is by grace you have been saved,
through faith -- and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God."
Ephesians 2:8 NIV
Memorize this verse with your child. Discuss what it means to be saved
by grace through faith, which is a gift from God. |

Suggested Parent/Child Activity:
Discuss some of the many things in which we put our faith or trust in, on a daily basis. Some examples would include:
1) We have faith that the chair will not collapse when we sit on it.
2) We have faith that the brakes will work on our bike or car.
3) We have faith that the traffic lights are working properly.
4) We have faith that the bridge will not collapse when we drive over the river.
Read Hebrews chapter 11 with your child. Discuss the importance of
putting our trust in God and putting our faith into action. |
