Everyday Resources: light up or colour-changing toys or LED candles
We all show the Lord’s glory, and we are being changed to be like Him. This change in us brings ever greater glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
2 Corinthians 3:18 NCV
Play with and explore any light up or colour-changing toys or LED candles you may have.
Chat about the colours you can see and explore dark and light together.
Point out any that are changing colour! Say the colours to your younger child and help them to say them or point to them.
Encourage an older child to create a light display for the whole family to enjoy. How can you make it brighter? Which colours can you see? Which is your favourite? How does that change the effect? That's so impressive…
As you explore and discover, tell your child ‘Did you know that God is changing us to be like Him? He wants to transform us, just like this light changes or affects the room.’
Share any ways that God is changing you.
You could speak truths like ‘I show God’s glory’, ‘Jesus is changing me’, ‘I am being changed to be like Jesus’, ‘God’s glory is growing in me’… Why not insert your names into the bible verse above to release more truth and hope within you!
Pray for anything specific you'd like to see transformed in your lives or anything Jesus is highlighting to you. Pray for your child to grow in awareness of God being with them, all around them and in them. Pray for them to experience His transforming power and light in their lives.
