H is for Heaven

Heaven is our biblical focus for the rest of the month in our homeschooling endeavors. We plan to read several books, do some crafts and have some great conversations. I always think about what to pray the end result of these will be. During Easter, I really just wanted Matthew to understand that baby Jesus who we talked about so much during Christmas grew up and became a man. The heart truth being that He loves us. Matthew very excitedly when he sees a picture of grown up Jesus will exclaim, He's alive!"  In those moments, I'm humbled by what God does with the activities we do around the house.  When I was first researching this topic for a preschool level, I just hoped to teach him there is a heaven. Now that he's aware Jesus is alive. I'm hoping through this focus that Matthew will understand by believing in Jesus being alive for us we get to be in heaven forever with Jesus. I'm excited to see what God will bring about..... :-)

 

We've been preparing the way to talk about Heaven by also looking at
pictures that show the life of Jesus. The natural conversation being what
happens next.....
