Children’s Lesson—No. 4

Growing

Write the word “Go” on blackboard or paper; this was what Jesus told his disciples to do. Mark 16:15. To us now he may say, “Go” to school, or, “Go” to work for me where you are.
It is not enough to simply “go.” We must go right. (Write “Right” under “Go.”) Some children go, but they go wrong. We must seek to find the right way during this week of prayer.
Nor is it enough to only start right. We must go right on—continue in well-doing. Gal. 6:9. (Write “On” under “Right.”)
But what shall we go right on doing? (Write “Working” under the other words.) Now we have— Go Right On Working
Children may sell books and papers, can earn money, can do helpful things at home and for others, and in this way work for Jesus.
If we do this, we shall (erase all but initial letters, leaving on the blackboard) grow. G R O W
There are three special examples of this kind of growing in the Bible. 1 Sam. 2:26; Luke 1:80; 2:40.
God’s work grows—so must we.
