What we learned:
Today, we learned why we pray. It's simple,
to talk with God and to get His direction for our lives. God is so
good and will help us when we are happy, sad, sick or even when we're
in trouble. God will give us wisdom, strength and understanding if
we only ask Him. In fact God is willing to give us many good things
as long as we ask for them in accordance to His will. (Scripture used: James 5:13-16) |

Memory Verse:
"You will seek me and find me when you seek
me with all your heart."
(Jeremiah 29:13 NIV)
Practice this verse with your child during
the week. This will not only help him or her remember the verse, but it
will also help give your child a desire to commune with God on a regular
basis. |

Suggested Parent/Child Activity:
1) Ask your child if he or she could become
close friends to someone if he or she never communicated with the
other person.
2) Ask your child how much he or she would learn at school if he or
she never opened the books or listened to the teacher.
Take time to explain the points above are also true with our relationship
with God. We must take time to communicate with God through prayer.
We can listen to God and learn many important truths by reading God's
Word, the Bible. |
