Corazon - Heart

Salmos 72:26 "Ya casi no tengo fuerzas, pero a ti siempre te tendre; !mi unica fuerzas eres tu! Psalm 73:26 "My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever."

Dia de Amor/ Valentine's Day is just around the corner. This week in class we memorized this verse from Psalms. In order to help my class understand this verse I used mini toy parachute men. You all have at some point bought those little army guys with plastic parachutes that you would take up a tree and let go of or climb a ladder even to watch it slowly float to the ground. Well the example was in reference that each little parachute man was us/you/me and when we try to do things on our own or even worldly ways with our actions, words, anything then are parachute doesn't open up fully to guide us safely back to the ground. We fall and sometimes we fall hard when we want to do things on our own. The great thing is that we have a Lord and Savior who loves us and wants to be in our lives daily and when we stop and invite him into our lives then by his grace we are filled with the Holy Spirit who will gladly open our parachutes because He loves us and wants to be a part of our lives. So this Sunday my class will be demonstrating the mini parachute men as themselves and how God's love, his strength is our portion forever. He desires that and wants an relationship with us. The kids are excited open up their parachutes for Christ. Fun lesson to share.
