Worship 2 Go Drawing School and Home Together

Thanks to all those people who have made some of the resources collated here available to share

Humility Daily Prayer

Dear God, thank you that you love us even when we

get things wrong. Help us always to think about what

you want us to do. When we only look at the wonder

of ourselves, reminder us to look for the wonder in

others. Help us always to share your love with them.

Amen.

Bible Verse

He has shown you, O mortal, what is

good. And what does the Lord require

of you? To act justly and to love mercy

and to walk humbly with your God

You can find this in the Bible in the book

of Micah, Chapter 6, verse 8

Creative Prayer 1≈ Teaspoon Prayers

When we pray to God it is often with humility whether we are saying, thank you, please

or sorry. All of those prayers can be difficult sometimes (perhaps especially saying

sorry!). Take 3 teaspoons either metal or plastic. When we write a recipe we shorten

teaspoon to tsp. Decorate the teaspoons each spoon with a letter, t, s or p. Use the

teaspoons to help you to remember to pray in this way:

t= thank you, s= sorry and p= please.

Wondering

I wonder if you find it difficult to be

humble

I wonder if you can think of any

examples of people showing humility

I wonder if you can think of a time when

you demonstrated humility

Activity 1 ≈ Encourage someone

Think of something someone you know is good at. It might be that they are a good cook, that they are good at reading stories or playing a sport. Write a little note to say that you have noticed what they ’re good at. You might want to write some encouraging words too. Leave it somewhere they will find it. If you want to share it with someone you can’t see at the moment, as a family, you could take a photograph of it and send it to that person.

Activity 2 ≈ Design a town

This is your chance to create your own town. You could draw it on a big piece of paper, make it

from Lego or scrap with boxes and cardboard. If you have space you could make a really big one!

Give your town a name. What would you do if you were mayor of this town? How would you make

sure everyone was happy?

Quote of the week

‘Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less’

CS Lewis

(If you are not sure who this person is, perhaps someone can help you do a little research)

Thing of the week…

This week we are inviting you to design a hat, the bigger the better! We can’t wait to see your photos

on Twitter!

Creative Prayer 2 ≈ Praying for justice

CS Lewis wrote a series of stories about a world called Narnia. In that world, bad things sometimes

happened that made Narnia seem broken but everything was put right in the end. It’s the same for

us in our world. Are there any particular places or things happening in the world that you think

need mending? Maybe they are things that seem unjust or unfair. Sometimes, it takes humility to

see another person’s point of view.

Make a list of those things or cut some pictures out of newspapers or magazines to make a collage.

What is your prayer for them? Is there anything you can do to help make the world a better place?

It might be something that seems like a small thing such as remembering to show kindness to

someone else, but that can make a BIG difference.
