Devotion for Toddlers: Give Thanks

Learning to be grateful for what we have, rather than whining about what we want, is helpful.

Devotion: Jessie is jealous of her friend who just got a new video game. It's a lot of fun, and Jessie knows it's expensive, but she really, really wants one, too. On the way home, Jessie asks her mom for one, but her mom says they can't afford it. Jessie starts to complain, but then she sees a man by the side of the road that has no home at all, and she decides not to whine. God promises to provide for us. He says we may not get everything we want, but He will give us what we need. Today, try to be thankful for what you have.

My Bible Verse: The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not be in want. Psalm 23:1

My Prayer: Dear Jesus, thank You for giving me everything I need. Please help me to be thankful for what I have. Amen.
