(Water
balloons, eggs, or macaroni help teach us to be responsible as we learn
with Adam about God giving us work to do.)
Weekly Scripture:
Genesis 1 & 2
Story:
“God Gave Man
Responsibility”
Precept:
The Lord gives us responsibilities to do His work and care for each other.
Finding
Christ:
These two chapters are packed with types of Christ. See how many you can
find. Just one would be the Tree of Life. Jesus is our Eternal Life!
Live
the Lesson:
Depending on where you will be doing this object lesson, what kind of
weather you have, and what time of day/night…you have the option of using
either: water balloons, eggs, uncooked elbow macaroni noodles, or whatever
you can imagine. Have your family sit in a close circle if you use macaroni
or a lot further apart if using water balloons or eggs. Without telling your
family the purpose, place one bucket next to the first person in the circle
with the entire “product” in it and place an empty bucket next to the
last person. Explain the rules that they are responsible to pass the product
around the circle. If anything drops, do not retrieve it. Just continue
passing more product to the next person as quickly and efficiently as
possible.

Verse:
“We
are God’s fellow workers.”
1 Corinthians 3:9
Prayer:
Dear Lord, please help me to be very careful with the responsibilities you
give to me. Help me to always do my best and to always seek Your help!
Living
the Life:
This week discuss responsibilities each person is given to care for each
other in the family. Teach your children good manners such as holding the
door open for others.
