Planting Seeds Of Biblical Truth: The Family Devotional GuideSample
Faithfulness In Creation
TALKING TO GOD
Thank God for the variety and beauty of nature around you – bright flowers, silver moon and stars, colourful rainbows, blue skies, and other examples of nature that you enjoy.
DIVING IN
Hold an orange and shine a flashlight on the fruit as if it were the sun shining on the earth. Point out where the sun may warm the earth and where it won’t, as the orange is turned. Talk about how the people living in the Northern Hemisphere use their sweaters and hats when those in the Southern Hemisphere head to the beach.
GOING DEEPER
Even if people in different places have seasons at opposite times, the seasons still come every year. You can count on them – just like you can count on other things in nature to always be the same. The sun always rises in the east, for example, and the stars annually shine in the same patterns in the night sky. Read Psalm 74:16-17. Remember that God sets “all the boundaries of the earth”.
TALKING TO EACH OTHER
- What consistent patterns have you noticed in nature?
- Why is it important that God faithfully causes the seasons and other things to happen at their set times?
- What do these things teach you about God?
