PEACE THROUGH FOLLOWING GODS RULES TALKING TO GOD Tell God what you love about His Word, the Bible. Tell Him why you like a certain verse or story, and thank Him for it. DIVING IN With Mom or Dad standing close by, try walking around the room wearing snowshoes, swim fins or shoes that are way too big. How far can you go without stumbling or wobbling? Do you think a rule that we shouldnt wear these things in the house would be a good idea? Explain. GOING DEEPER Consider Psalm 119:165: Great peace have they who love your law, and nothing can make them stumble. God promises you a giant helping of peace when you do what His Word says. Following Gods rules helps you make fewer mistakes, and you no longer have to worry about stumbling or getting hurt because of bad decisions. Living according to Gods Word allows His peace to rule your heart. Whew! For a reminder of what Gods Word says, review Psalm 18:30, 19:8, 33:4. And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever. (Isaiah 32:17 KJV) TALKING TO EACH OTHER - Think about a rule that you follow, such as walking in the crosswalk or not running in the hallway at school. Are you more likely to get hurt when you follow the rules or when you dont follow them? Explain. - When have you felt peaceful because you obeyed Gods Word? - How can you get Gods peace back after youve goofed up?
