Kites and God
Hey kids,
Summer time is a great time to get outside and learn about God through nature! Did you know that God uses nature to help us learn about Himself? Yep, the Bible says, “For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God.” –Romans 1:20 NLT
Kite flying is a fun way to learn about the Holy Spirit through nature. Go out to a park or somewhere else that has a lot of open space without power lines or bridges and fly your kite. You’ll see that the wind is really strong. In fact if you have a big enough kite it may feel like the kite wants to pick you right up (don’t worry, it won’t)! It’s the wind and air pressure that does that.
Jesus said that just like the wind, which you know is there even though you can’t see it, is really powerful the Holy Spirit can’t be seen but He’s really powerful to change your life! Check out John 3:5-8. It will help you learn more about God!
