Jesus teaches, “You are the light of the world. Don’t hide your light. Shine for everyone to see.”
MEMORY VERSE
“Let your light shine.”
Matthew 5:16, NIV
SAY THIS:
I can do what Jesus says.
ENGAGE IN EVERYDAY MOMENTS TOGETHER:
MORNING TIME
When you go into your child’s room, cuddle them and say: “Good morning, [child’s name]! Today’s a new day! We can’t hide under these covers. It’s time to get up and let our light shine like Jesus said!”
DRIVE TIME
While on the go, take turns naming different places where you can let your light shine. It can be anywhere in the world because Jesus says, “You are the light of the WORLD!”
CUDDLE TIME
Cuddle with your child and pray: “God, [child’s name] and I want to do what Jesus says. Please help us so we can shine for everyone to see that Jesus loves them and wants to be their friend forever too.”
BATH TIME
During bath time, hold your pointer finger up. Say, “Jesus says ‘Shine your light! Don’t hide your light.’ (Cover your finger.) Now it’s your turn!” (Take turns shining and hiding your lights.)
