REMEMBER VERSE
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on
you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all
Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.
Acts 1:8
Summer
Lesson 4
YOUNGER KIDS
Younger children tend to lean toward being egocentric. When you see your child
display this type of behavior, gently remind her that it pleases God when we think
of others first.
OLDER KIDS
Your older child may have his own personal crusades or causes that are close to
his heart. Encourage him to participate in caring for others in an area of ministry
where God has given him a passion.
TEACHABLE MOMENTS
After reading the Scripture passage, discuss the following together:
What are some ways you can care for for those around you as Tabitha
did?
How did God show Himself as the Lord who heals?
Who in our life right now needs prayer for healing?
BLESSING
A blessing can be a spoken prayer of commission, a portion of Scripture, or
words of encouragement and guidance over your child. For more information
about blessing your child, see the Blessing section in HomeFront: A Spiritual
Parenting Resource @ HomeFrontMag.com
A blessing to pray over your child:
(Childs name), may God care for your body, heart, and mind in every way.
May He show Himself as the Lord who heals to you and those around you.
