Children's Lesson—No. 1

Beginning Right

Scripture Text: Luke 6: 47-49.
The foundation of character is laid in childhood. All about us little people are laying foundations for life. Some build on rock, some on sand.
(Make a picture of a foundation marked in squares, and let the children name the things that will help in forming a good character; and as they are named, write them in the open squares.)
One of the best stones to place in the foundation of life is prayer. This is the week of prayer. Shall we not begin to-day to pray as we have never done before?
(Let the children give an example of answered prayer of which they have known, as this will make the lesson more practical.)
The Lord has not given away all his blessings. He has one for each of us to-day. “Ask, and it shall be given you.”
