A Mother's Request
Matthew 20 Message
When my firstborn son was about to start kindergarten, there were two class options. One of those classes I believed was best for him; so I prayed that God would place him in that class. When I met with the principal, I made my request known to her, but after
she interviewed my young child, she concluded that the other class would be a more suitable fit. This left me disheartened and concerned he
wouldn't do well in the other class.
This predicament reminded me of a Bible story from Matthew 20. The mother of James and John, the sons of Zebedee, approached Jesus with a request. She
asked, "In your Kingdom, please let my two sons sit in places of honor next to you, one on your right and the other on your left."
Jesus responded, "You don't know what you're asking!" He then . . . continue

God Knows You & Loves You
Children's Object Lesson
(You'll need a magnifying glass, and a sheet of paper with a small circle drawn at the center of it, approximately 1/4" in diameter. Inside the circle type or write "God Knows You" using the smallest text possible. Tape the paper to a wall opposite of where you'll present the lesson. If possible, give each child a small plastic magnifying glass to keep as a lesson reminder.)
The Psalms are a collection of prayer and praise songs written mostly by David*, the King of ancient Israel, and were used during worship services to sing praises to God. Even today, many of our modern praise songs use portions of the Psalms in their lyrics.
In today's lesson we will learn that God knows us and loves us. (As you say the Bible point, have children use these motions:
Knows: Point to your temple. Loves: Hug yourself.)
What does it mean to examine? (Listen for answers) Examine means to inspect, or to look closely at something. (Direct the children to look across the room at the paper. Ask them, "What is on that paper? It appears to be a black dot. But if you look closely at it you'll find a message written on it for you." Allow the children to use the magnifying glass to look at the
dot.
By examining that dot, by looking closely at it, we read a very important message.

Beatitudes Song
for Children's Ministry
Bev Tunnel, a contributor to the site, writes, "After a semester of studying the Be-Attitudes for Kids, the older children in our program recited them during our closing program, and the younger ones sang a song that I wrote to the tune of
Mary Had a Little Lamb. Some of it is tricky to fit in, but it worked."
