Happy to Be Humble
Play: Have your child describe to you what their day would be like as a famous person (movie star, athlete, political figure). How would they use their money, fame, and power?
Relay: We sometimes think that the blessed people are those with a lot of money, fame, or power. However, Jesus said that the happiest people are those who do not think if themselves as great, mighty, or wonderful (Matthew 5:3). Rather, they know that God is the One who is to be admired. This is called humility. Jesus preached that these are the people who are a part of His kingdom. Money may not buy happiness, but humility will result in blessing.
Obey:
Why do you think money, fame, and power can keep us away from God?
What is humility?
How do you think you become more humble?
Pray: Ask God to help you be humble and recognize how great God is.
Scripture of the Day: Matthew 5:3
