🚸 Ages 6-12 Years Old

Choices are part of daily life for everyone. While young children are not faced with quite as many decisions as adults, it is still important for them to learn that choices are meaningful and can have a significant impact on their lives. In this lesson, discuss with students examples of choices, and talk about the most critical option we have: whether to serve or abandon the Lord. Describe what it means to serve God, and how it will bless our lives when we do.  

 God is faithful to us and provides for us. He loves us and promises to always be with us. Part of the Lord’s love is that He gives us a choice. We are not forced to serve Him, but can decide who and what we devote ourselves to. When we consider God’s power and providence, though, there really is only one option. Serving Him demonstrates our gratitude for His faithfulness, and also allows us to be richly blessed by His love and mercy.
