The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

This week's Awesome Time Online is brought to you by Carol!

This Sunday we are learning about some 'I WILL' statements from Jesus. You can read about them in the Bible, in the book of Luke, chapter 6, verses 17 to 26.

This is Luke’s take on the beatitudes.  It is about hope when you are in those times when hope seems so far away.

First, watch and listen to the story of  'Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day' by Judith Viorst and illustrated by Ray Cruz on Read Aloud Children's Books.

What a great story, Carol! Thanks for sharing that. I wonder if anyone has seen the movie? My favourite scene is when Alex's older brother is going for his driving test. Hilarious!

The Seven “I Will” Statements from Jesus

These seven statements are precious promises that give us the perfect assurance, rest, hope, and joy that can only be received from God.

My favourite 'I Will' is the one that says, 'I will love you.' No matter who we are, where we are or what we're doing, Jesus promises to love us always. How awesome is that! - Melanie

There are also seven I AM statements from Jesus.

What are they?

Create a poster or a video illustrating these.

Or make something out of hearts – a wreath or a chain of hearts, a card or a bookmark to give to someone special, to remind them how much YOU love them, and how much JESUS loves them too.
