This past week in the Preschool we learned the story of Mary anointing Christ's feet with costly perfume. Though some were angry that such an expensive material was used for such a temporary purpose, Jesus explained the significance of honoring Him with the best of what Mary had.
As we teach our children to love God and make Him famous, we want to communicate the importance of giving Him the best of what we have. Lived out, we are "doing all for the glory of God" (1 Corinthians 10:31).
As you go throughout your days, talk openly about the things that you are doing together and how those things can honor God. Simple tasks like washing dishes or picking up toys, to fun activities like coloring or playing outside, are opportunities for us to do little "heart checks" with our children and further explain that a heart that honors God and loves Him most is a heart that is pleasing to the Lord.
Have a great day with your little ones!
