What we learned:
Today, we learned about the ten commandments
and that sometimes people think they are Christians just because
they have not broken any of the commandments. But using the name of
God in the wrong way, wanting what someone else has, not showing respect
for parents, or lying, are all breaking one of the commandments. Unfortunately
everyone has failed one time or another. (Scripture used: Exodus 20:1-20) |

Memory Verse:
"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path."
Psalm 119:105
Practice this verse several times with your child during the week. This will not only help him or her remember the verse, but it will also help to reinforce what he or she learned during class. Many
homes have installed pathway lights along walkways or landscapes.
Compare these to the memory verse. |

Suggested Parent/Child Activity:
Get two Bibles, and turn to Exodus 20:1-17. Call out a number between one and ten, and have a race with
your child to read the scriptures to find what commandment corresponds
to that number. For example, you call out the number 4, and find the
4th commandment in sequence is: Remember the sabbath day, to
keep it holy. After a while, both of you should be able to do this
without the aid of the Bible. Be sure to let your child win a few
times. |

Daily Prayer:
Dear God, You are the only true God, and
I worship and adore You. Thank You Lord for giving Your commandments
to help teach me and guide me every day of my life. I especially thank
You for Jesus, who offers me forgiveness for when I do stray from
keeping all of Your commands, and sin against You. Amen. |
