May Theme: All Dressed Up but Safer at Home May 24, 2020
Have you ever been bullied? Maybe there was someone who didn't like you very much and they did everything in their power to make you upset, and sometime, even scared. Well, we shouldn't be scared, especially if we know God is with us all the time. Today, we're going to learn about a few young boys who were bullied and bullied until they were thrown in a dungeon with lions. In fact, they were thrown in a fiery dungeon and couldn't get out. They were stuck in that dungeon just like we've been stuck at home for the past several weeks! Unlike them, we were treated kindly by our parents. For Daniel and his friends, they were treated terribly all because they would bow down to other gods, other than the one true God.

Story Time!Let's hear how God save Daniel and his friends! When Daniel was in a terrible and frightening bind, he prayed, and God delivered him and his frieds! What a mighty God we serve! He is able to deliver!

Did you hear about Joseph and his brothers in the Bible? Joseph's brothers did not like Joseph too much, and they did not like having him around. I know that we should be joyful with each other. We should not fight and quarrel. God does not like that at all! When we argue and fight all the time, we can't worship God like we need to and like God wants us to. Put a smile on your face, love your brothers and sisters (and mom and dad) so that God will love what you are doing.

So What's So Fishy?Did you know the Bible talks about fish an awful lot? Jesus told His disciples that they would be fishers of men. Also, Jesus took a little boy's fish that he planned to eat to miraculously turn one piece of fish to feed many people. Some of Jesus' disciples were even fishermen, and Jesus many times sat down and ate fish with them. Yeah!
|
That's right! Jesus ate fish with many people. But did you know that fish also ate people in the Bible. Well....sort of. That's what we're going to talk about today. Jonah...the prophet that was swallowed by a great fish. Let's listen to the story.... |
Bible Story Time! Jonah and the Big Fish!

Today's Bible story is about Jonah. Jonah was a prophet of the Lord. As a prophet, he was supposed to do whatever God asked him to do. As a prophet, he had to preach the commandments of God to the Hebrews and he sometimes had to tell them what would happen to them in the future. In the Book of Jonah in the Bible, God commanded Jonah to go preach to all the wicked people who lived in Nineveh, but Jonah did not want to do what God commanded him. Because Jonah disobeyed God, God prepared a great fish for him, and that great fish swallowed Jonah! Can you believe it!
Click the audio play button below to here the story of Jonah. If you can tell me what Jonah did inside the belly of fish, we'll give you 5 points towards our end-of-the-quarantine drawing! I'll even give you hint: This is something everyone should do if they are in trouble and need help!

You're Not the Only One Who Can't Go Anywhere! Animals Get Stuck, Too!
Did you know that some animals hibernate? Hibernating is a period of time when animals slow way down and rest for a long, long time. The remain in one place just like we are doing today in Colorado. We can't go anywhere, but unlike hibernating animals, we don't want to go to bed!
When hibernating animals go to sleep, their heart beats much, much slower and they wait for better times to come out and enjoy the weather. They hibernate a lot of times because there's no more food for them. So, they find a small, little hole or place where they don't move for, sometimes, months! It is truly amazing! God takes care of them while they are sleeping.
