Week 7
The flowers I will grow in “the garden of my heart” for Jesus this week are:
WATER LILIES
​
I will grow them by striving for cleanliness!
"Dear Jesus, when You were a child like me, You must have kept Yourself clean and neat. I want to be clean and neat also! When my mom reminds me that it is time to take a bath and shampoo my hair, I won't argue or complain. I will take care to keep my clothes folded and hung up nicely. I will wash my hands before eating and brush my teeth without having to be told. Each time I do something that keeps me clean and neat, I will be growing fresh WATER LILY flowers in the 'garden of my heart' for You.
​
I hope You like my water lily flowers, Jesus! They can sometimes be kind of hard to grow."
This week's Scripture quote to write out and memorize:
"For God's temple is holy, and you are that temple."
1 Corinthians 3:1
(Saint Paul's first letter to the Corinthians, chapter 3, verse 1)
