Kidzport January 24 – Perseverance and Pancakes

January 27, 2010

We had an interesting day this past Sunday, as we coupled our lesson with pancakes! There’s nothing better than learning scripture while downing some fresh-cooked flapjack goodness, is there?

There are many scriptures that deal with the concept of perseverance. Perseverance can be summed up in one phrase:  ”Don’t give up.”   Here are some great scriptures to read:

Psalm 27: The LORD is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid?

Psalm 121: I will lift up my eyes to the hills— From whence comes my help?
My help comes from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth.

Isaiah 40:  But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings like eagles,
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.

Notice a theme?  Rely on God! When our strength fails, we can “persevere” by holding onto God.

For Parents:

• Read the chapters listed above with your child, and find the specific verses.
• Talk about times when perseverance is hard.  Are there specific examples in your life you can share?
• Pray together that they will remember to turn to God when things get hard.

Schedule note: This Friday (Jan 29th) is our first Family Night!  All parents should plan on attending with their children, at 7:15 in the sanctuary.
