My dc and I are currently studying the Ark; so far we have been looking at Noah’s life.<\/p>\n
As we are studying, I am trusting in the grace of God to make His Word sweet to them. That they would be excited – AMAZED – at his Word. That it would be honey to their lips and strength to their soul. That it not just be another “lesson” to learn. But they would see it as the Living Water that it is.<\/p>\n
Yesterday was one of those AMAZING days. In studying a story so common our 5 yo can narrate it, Lord bring freshness. Yesterday in looking at Noah’s history we talked about his grandfather and great grandfather and what all those around him must’ve thought as they, and even just their names, prophesied to the world. They were amazed as they saw it as The Great Story! real people living real lives sold out to God, walking with Him against all of society.<\/p>\n
We talked about the prophecy of the 10 generation of names from Adam to Noah, telling the gospel, of God coming to save His lost, wretched people. They were amazed. They saw the intricate design of the Sovereignty of God in the details of men’s lives.<\/p>\n
This is what it is all about. I can’t make our learning all fun and play all the time. But I can focus on reaching their hearts. That is so much more important to me. I can trust God that when His Word is sent forth it won’t return void. That it will be water, bread, meat to the soul. And I can trust the Holy Spirit to be our Teacher, as He teaches through the heart.<\/p>\n
