Faithfulness

It's so good to be home and back with the COTN Kids! The trip to Korea and China was great! It was long and busy, but the Lord did some really amazing things that I'm sure you have heard about or will hear about soon. I'll post a link to some pictures in a few days.

But while I've been gone, the kids have still been learning about the Fruit of the Spirit. We did some review (aka, Candy Questions) in Kids Church on Sunday, and the kids really knew the answers. I can tell you've been doing this at home with them, and that's so fantastic! While I was away, the kids learned about Joy, Self-Control, and Peace. I was asking the kids what peace meant, and here's an answer I got from one of the girls. "Peace is like if you're in a really dark room and you see a scary shadow, you know that God is with you and He'll never leave you. You have peace in your heart." Isn't that perfect? I'm so happy the kids have really been listening and letting the Lord speak to their hearts about the fruit of the Spirit.

This past Sunday we talked about Faithfulness. Our faith fact was, "I will not quit" and the verse, "A faithful man will be richly blessed." Proverbs 28:20

We talked about God's faithfulness - how He will never give up on us or break His promises to us, and how we need to live lives that are faithful before the Lord. What does that look like? Never giving up. Not giving up on worshiping and obeying our Heavenly Father, and not giving up on the things that we've been given to do. Also, when we're faithful, we know that others can count on us to keep our promises. So this week, as a family, ask the Holy Spirit to help you grow faithfulness in your life and watch to see what He does.
