Up! We Will Elevate (Week 2)Sample

Day Four - I Value Others 

Welcome to this devotional for kids!  Our ‘UP’ series is inspired by our ‘We Will Elevate’ DNA - We practise showing kindness to those around us and never leave anyone out. We value others the way God values us by being good friends and listeners, respecting our leaders and parents, and choosing to always see the good in others.

During this series, we want to truly grasp what it means to honour and elevate those around us - not just those who seem to be popular or are the most important in our lives, but to remember that God wants us to ‘take delight in honouring each other’ that means everyone! 

Follow along as we truly grasp what it means to honour and elevate those around us! 

READ:  

Jesus Teaches on the Mountain  in any Children’s Bible or Matthew 5:1-12

Jesus tells the people:  “You are much more important than birds.  You are much more important than flowers.  So do not worry, if God takes care of them, He will take care of you!"

Isn’t that amazing!!!  You are more important than the birds and the flowers - God thinks that you are important. 

ASK:

How do the passages you have read today make you feel?  

Remember when something is important to us we value it and take care of it. 

REMEMBER:

Love each other with genuine affection, and take delight in honouring each other. (Romans 12:10)

SAY:

Jesus, you show us how to be kind, 

No greater love will we find. 

Your deep love that gives us great value, 

Growing us as we learn more about you. 

Our friend, our saviour, our kind teacher, 

Helping us see the good in each other. 

Amen.
