For school we have been reading scriptures about not growing weary of being helpful. (Gal.6:9 and Heb.13:16)
We worked hard this last week to be helpful to one another. It was interesting to see them thinking of ways to be helpful. We talked about having an open hand with what God has given us. If you take what God has given you and hold on to it so tight, it's hard to receive something else that God might want to bless you with. I told Dawson to hold on to his gameboy and close his hand real tight around it. then I went and brought in a wrapped present and tried to give it to him. It was hard for him to take that gift with him holding on to that gameboy.
He said to me, " O.k I get it mom."
Psalms 41:1,2 has been this weeks bible verse. They memorized it and we will continue to repeat it everyday for a while.
Psalm 41
1Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.
2The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies.
