Today's lessons included:
- Practicing our memory verses I Corinthians 5:7 and Exodus 3:14
- Practicing our songs: When I See The Blood
- Reading our Bible lessons for today: Matthew 27:1-51 and 57-60, John 19:30, Isaiah 53:3-5, Hebrews 9:11-15, 2:9-18, 3:1-2
- Today'splague is Hailstorm and Fire, so we studied how sleet and hail happen (see previous post to find out for yourself)
- Writing assignment: Why is Jesus called the King of kings
- For art we are going to make some Seder plate placemats
- If I get the time we will be watching the video King of Kings...but I don't know that we will be able to squeeze that one in today.
- I also had the children prepare menu's and grocery lists yesterday for a Passover meal, today we plan to do the shopping...although, I may have to put that off till tomorrow, since it is nap time for the littles and I hate going to the grocery in the afternoon or evening...maybe I'll just do that tomorrow morning
- We are still looking at resurrection in nature such as the sand dollar, "easter" lily, dogwood trees, etc. Some of these are "legends" that have no real proof or meaning, others actually do seem to "point" to God, as does all nature really!
Steve Green said it best in his song All Across The Sky, didn't he?
All across the world
People everywhere
Ask "How can I believe in a God I cannot see?
If there really is a God, why is there so much pain?
If I could only see, then I'd believe."
If you could only see that His
For His Love is written all across the sky
As brilliantly the stars all testify
For the glory of the God Who reigns on high
Is displayed in the world He has made
And as all creation seems to shout and sing
In wonder of the one Almighty King
His signature can easily be seen on everything
Take a minute now and take a look around
Can you believe that everything you see
Took place by chance?
The intricate design
Down to the last detail
And what about the mystery that cuts us like a knife:
"What is the source of life?"
For His Love is written all across the sky
As brilliantly the stars all testify
For the glory of the God Who reigns on high
Is displayed in the world He has made
And as all creation seems to shout and sing
In wonder of the one Almighty King
His signature can easily be seen on everything
