This Week's Passage: Jeremiah 1:4-10
Memory Verses: Jer. 1: 7-8
Something happened this past week in JesusKidz that reminded me of this passage. Kids ages 8 to 12 came together to lift up the needs of their teachers, friends, classmates, and family members in prayer. It didn't matter whether or not they knew the right words to say to reach God; they just knew that those people needed them, and they knew they were the only ones who could pray for them.
To those of you who were there, I want to encourage you with this word. In this passage, Jeremiah received the word from God Himself that He wanted to use him. I don't know how old Jeremiah was, but he must have been afraid that the older people would laugh at him and think he didn't know what he was doing if he stood up and spoke what God told him to say. If you weren't there Wednesday night, don't worry: we'll be doing more things like spending time in God's presence in prayer in the future.
Read for yourself what God's answer was, and know today that the same promises God gave Jeremiah are for you also.
Here are some questions for you to consider as you think about this word:
1. What did God tell Jeremiah in this passage when he said he was too young?
2. What are some things God can use you to do wherever you are -- at home, at school, and even at church that will bring glory to His Name?

About Jesus Kidz!
Hi, Parents & JesusKidz
It's such an honor to update you on what's going on in ALM's children's ministry. If your child has graduated from "Noah's Babies" (ages 0-2), then this is the place for him or her. JesusKidz has three levels: Pre-K (ages 3 and 4), ages 5 to 7, and ages 8 to 12. On Sundays and Wednesdays, children receive instruction from the Word of God in an exciting, interactive manner. At Abundant Life, we also believe one is never too young to begin training in the service of God. Consequently, our young people are involved in creating skits, songs, and artwork that reflect what they are learning. They participate in a children's choir on a monthly basis, where a love for God and worship are emphasized.
