Hand Down the Faith with a Mystery Bag Project - God Knows What the Future Holds

We, and the children we love, are living in what is most certainly able to be considered an uncertain time. But, while we do not know what all to expect from day to day, we do know God has good things in store for us and we are able to pray the ones we love will be able to see those, "good things". 

We know this is true, because God promises it in Jeremiah 29:11 -

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

While we do not know what is, "around the corner" for our grandchildren, children, family, friends, and ourselves, we know God does. As the children we love return to school and we all experience this uncertainty, consider involving your grandchildren in making a periscope as a "Mystery Bag" project to help them learn and remember how they are able to trust God's plans for them.

You will find the the instructions for making a periscope at this link. As you work on it with the children you love, talk about how God knows what is ahead of us - even when we do not.
