I think we all think of patience as being able to wait with a cheerful and calm heart and being able to wait to do things instead of doing what we want to do right now, but the verse this week gives new insight on what it also means to be patient. It’s so much more being able to wait our turn in line at the slide.

Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other’s faults because of your love. [Ephesians 4:2, NLT]

I have never thought about how patience is demonstrated as we make allowance for each other’s faults. Patience is giving grace to others (even people that aren’t easy to get along with) and loving them even when they make mistakes. How perfectly God shows us this. He is SO patient with us when we mess up time and time again.

  • Supplies: A Favorite Sweet Treat (gummy bears, m&m’s, fruit snacks, mini marshmallows, chocolate chips), 2 Small Bowls or Bags (per person)
  • Instructions:
  1. Place one treat in one bowl and a handful of the treat in the second bowl.
  2. Offer the treat to your child before dinner, but let them know they have an option. Either they can have the first bowl that has only one treat in it before dinner or if they wait patiently until after dinner they can have the second bowl that has a lot more.
  3. Talk about it: Depending on which option your child chose you can talk about whether they were patient or not and why they chose to be patient or wait or impatient and eat the treat.

Create: Mail a Letter & Ask for One Back Activity

  • Supplies: Cardstock or Construction Paper, Crayons, Markers, or Colored Pencils to Decorate Card, Envelopes, Stamps
  • Instructions:
  1. Fold cardstock or construction paper in half to make a card.
  2. Invite your child to decorate the card so that they can mail it to a friend, grandparent, or other relative.
  3. Put the card in an envelope, address it, put the stamp on, and take your child to the post office to mail the card.
  4. Talk About It: Talk about how you will now wait for the friend, grandparent, or relative to write back. You can talk about how they have to be patient because mail can take a while to receive.

*Tip: Let the recipient know you are sending the letter to them so they can look for it and send something back within a reasonable window. You might want to include a return stamp/envelope as well.
