FHE Lesson {Let your light Shine/Kindness}

 This lesson comes from two ideas in this months friend magazine found here and here



Opening Song:  I am like a Star #163

Opening Prayer: Child


Lesson:


Turn off the lights

Using a torch or candles create some light in the darkness.

What does electricity/torch/candle provide us?
{light in the dark, a way to see, a path to follow, leads and guide, comfort etc}

Read the scripture Matthew 5:14-16
 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
  Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
 
What does this scripture mean?
{We are lights. We are examples. We shouldn't hide our light. We should let it shine for everyone.}
 
Other people may look to us. Other people may need us. How can we help other people?
We need to let our light shine by......
{Be kind, Be an example, be good, share, say a kind word, forgive, smile at someone}
