Dependence on God drives us to prayer...Day 3


Today was day 3 of the teacher training. Our topic was dependence. Bethany shared a devotion from 1 John 4 to start us off that reminded us that we can only love others because God first loved us. Together we also brainstormed a list of ways we have to depend on the Lord. Some of the things shared were: in order to forgive others, to provide for us, to guide us, to change or transform us, ect. We talked about how through our dependence we are drawn in to relationship with our Father and therefore and led to pray. We asked the teachers to get in pairs and take some time to share their hearts and pray for one another.

We also talked about how we can work together and depend on one another. We played a game where people competed to see who could be the fastest to move heavy items from one side of the room to the other. At the end of the game we discussed how working together to move the items would be the fastest method. The knot game was the next introduction. A difficult acdtivity but when we all worked together and took our time we did untangle ourselves. Lots of fun, truth, and laughter today!
