With all the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, it is so easy to get caught up in the commercialism of it all. Finding the best gifts become a priority, rather than focusing on THE best gift that this world has ever known! So this holiday season, try to take a step back and focus on what is truly important… the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ! A tiny baby who was both fully God and fully man, came down from Heaven to save us from our sins. It is mind boggling and heart warming to think of how much God loves ME, that He would send his only Son to die for my sins. As a mom, I cannot imagine loving someone enough to send my child to die in their place… His sacrifice is unthinkable! This Christmas, I cannot help but be reminded of how thankful and truly grateful I am that I can call the God of the Universe “Abba Father.”
Give your children the most precious gift of all this Christmas… a closer relationship with Jesus Christ! One of the ways they can achieve this is through memorizing scripture. The Bible says, “I have hidden thy word in my heart.” With I Can Learn the Bible, you are able to instill verses and their meaning into your child’s heart that will help them live their lives in a way that is pleasing to God.
Memory verses and devotions that will write God’s word on your children’s hearts.
In this 52-week devotional for children, author Holly Hawkins Shivers adapts the gift book The Joshua Code (written by her father, O.S. Hawkins) into a devotional that will help kids learn and live the scriptures. Using kid-friendly language, I Can Learn the Bible teaches scriptures in a way children can understand. Each week, kids will commit a new scripture to memory by reading a fun, engaging devotional that’s doable for a child. Matthew 7:7 will remind kids to always ask God for help. Philippians 1:6 will teach them that God is always working in their lives. And 50 more scriptures will continue to write the truth on their hearts so that they will remember it forever.
Keep the CHRIST in CHRISTmas this year and all the year through! 🙂
