Hey families. It's a snow day! A great opportunity to connect with your kids and faith. Here is one suggestion from faithgateway.com.
Snow Day Lesson #1 – God is incredibly creative.
There are things about God that people cannot see — His eternal power and all the things that make Him God. But since the beginning of the world those things have been easy to understand. They are made clear by what God has made. — Romans 1:20a
Did you know that in a snowstorm that produces about 5 inches of snow over 2000 square miles will contain 5 quintillion snowflakes? Even though there is some question about whether there are really no two snowflakes alike, there are too many possible snowflake formations to count. God’s creativity can be seen throughout creation, but when you think of the incredible detail and diversity of snowflakes, you realize just how limitless His creative power really is! And if He cares enough to create so many different varieties of something so tiny and temporary as a snowflake, how much more must He care about His children.
Activity idea
Take a black piece of construction paper outside and catch some snowflakes on it. Take a close look at the incredible detail of the snowflakes you catch. When everyone gets cold, bring the kids inside and have them draw some of the snowflake designs they saw, or cut paper snowflakes to hang around the house. See how many designs you can make! No two will be alike!
