What I Really Wantਨਮੂਨਾ

If you've ever seen the old school armor of a soldier, you know that a shield was a very important piece of the outfit. It helped protect the soldier from oncoming attacks and could even serve as a weapon in battle. This verse tells us that this is the kind of defense that God is for us when we battle temptation. God gives us the strength we need to turn away from temptation and toward His best for our lives. He uses things like His word, His love, and even other people in our lives to protect us from temptation.

Draw a picture of a shield. Put it somewhere you can see it often to remind you of the strength and protection God gives us when we’re faced with temptation.
