Hidding God's Word In Their Hearts

Over the last nine months Maddie has been involved in Awana Cubbies at our church, last night was award night. Maddie received a little Cubbie bear for her vest, for learning her all of her verses during this first year of Cubbies.

Maddie has enjoyed and looked forward to Cubbies every Sunday night. It has been such a wonderful blessing to see her so excited about learning her verse every week. It is so neat to see her use her verses to explain what she is learning, how she should treat others, or many other application.


If you have a little one and you have not started memorizing scripture with them, may I encourage you to do so. Maddie was two when she started memorizing scripture in Sunday School. They are little sponges at this age and the verses that they learn now will be with them for the rest of their lives. If you make it a part of your daily schedule it really does not much time just a little effort.


Every week we take Maddie's verse and write it on a little piece of paper and keep it in our napkin holder on our kitchen table, this way every time we sit down to eat we have it there to review. We also like to review verses, in the car and at bed time. It is such a blessing to have the Lords word working in their little hearts.

Praying all is well, my friend.
