A better world

After exploring what the Bible says about heaven and eternal life, we set up a prayer station to explore what heaven on earth might be like.  We asked the children to think about what they would change to make the world a better place where there would be no more crying, pain or hunger.  They wrote or drew a picture and then asked God to bring about that change.  Then they clipped it to a line so that their prayers could be seen.  The children suggested that if they waited, they might be able to notice a change in the world and would maybe be able to move some of their prayers to the 'answered prayers' side of our prayer board.
