“David Learns to Lead”
Bible Story
2 Samuel 12:7-10
Children's Bible: God forgave David
Devotional Activity
Matthew 5:16 “Let your light shime before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.”
We read a story about how our good is a light for God and an example for others.
We talked about how it is not always easy to let our light shine for Jesus, but that it is important.
We repeated Matthew 5:16 three times
We also reviewed:
Proverbs 15:1
Matthew 5:9
Colossians 3:20
We prayed and asked God to shine the light of His truth into our hearts, and asked Him to give us grace to obey Him so that His light will shine out to others.

Bible Activity
We talked about how important it is for men to respect women, and for husbands to honor their wives. I had the boys take their stuffed animals and pretend they were girls. The boys named them “Hannah” and “Anna”. I had them act out the following scenarios”
-opening the door for them
-holding their coat open for them
-waiting to go second
-introducing the woman first
-waiting for a woman to be seated first
-push in her chair for her
(can you imagine how precious this was?)
