Family Worship Activity:
Each person will need a paper plate and a marker. Direct your family to place the plate on their heads. During the activity they cannot take it down to look at their picture. It has to stay in place. Have them use a pen/pencil to draw…
Give these commands:
1. Draw a house.
2. Draw a sun in the sky.
3. If you haven’t already, put a chimney and windows on the house.
4. Draw a line where the ground should be.
5. Add flowers coming up from the ground.
6. Place a happy face on the sun.
7. Draw a tree on the side of the house.
8. Add a person to the scene under the tree
9. Now, let everyone look at their artistic creations! It is always silly to see how the scenes turn out. Ask a few questions. Was it difficult to know where to put the objects? What was the hardest part about drawing these pictures? What would have made it easier?
Play a second round. Choose partners. Let one person be the artist and the other gets to represent “Gods Hands.” It’s a pretty important role!
Repeat the process and read the instructions aloud. The artist will still draw the objects on the plate, but this time they will have “God’s Hands” to direct and assist them. The helper can use their hands to place the marker in a good spot on the plate, or to shape the objects in an appropriate manner.
Once the eight steps are competed for the second time, compare the two finished scenes. What method was easier? Did it help to have someone who could see the whole picture guiding the artist? Was it hard to give some control over to the helper?
God’s hands are always reaching out for us. He loves us. He cares for us. We can trust Him to pick us up when we are feeling sad, clap for us when we are choosing the right, wipe away our tears, and point out the way we need to go. God can always be trusted!
