God’s Word Lights the Way
Staying close to Jesus helps us grow
God’s Word for Me
“Your word is a lamp to guide my feet
and a light for my path.”
Psalm 119:105 NLT
Have you ever used a flashlight in the dark? It may not light up everything around you, but it helps you see where to place your next step.
The Bible can guide us in a similar way. God’s Word teaches us what is true and helps us make choices that are wise, kind, and loving.
When you are unsure what to do, you can read a Bible verse, ask a grown-up to help you understand it, and pray. God can use His Word to help you take your next faithful step.
Let’s Wonder
What do you think it means for God’s Word to be like a lamp?
What is one choice where you would like God to help you see the next wise, kind, or loving step?
Create and Remember
Color the lamp and path on the coloring page below.
Inside each place where the light touches the path, write or draw one truth from God’s Word. You might remember:
God loves me.
God is with me.
I can tell the truth.
I can forgive.
I can be kind.
If you need help, ask your grown-up to choose a Bible truth with you.
At the end of the path, draw one wise, kind, or loving step you can take this week.
My Next Faithful Step
Choose one choice where you need God’s help. Ask your grown-up to help you find and read a Bible verse that can guide you.
Then choose one wise, kind, or loving step you can take. You do not need to see every step—just follow the light God gives you for the next one.
A Prayer I Can Pray
God, thank You for giving me Your Word. Help me understand what is true and show me the next wise, kind, and loving step to take. Amen.
