FAMILY ACTION PACK
Izzy Dizzy Walking Wobble
You will need
Your Bible marked at Matthew 14:22-33.
Get Started
One at a time have each of your children hold out their arms,
put their heads back so they’re looking at the ceiling and stick
out their tongues. Tell them to spin around three times (you’ll
need to count for them) and then try to walk to you in a straight
line. (Be careful to do this in an area where they can fall and
stumble without getting hurt.) Then have them spin around
seven times…then ten times.
SAY: Everything gets confusing when you spin around a lot.
Sometimes life seems a little confusing when bad things
happen, but we can learn a lesson from the Bible about how
we can keep our eyes fixed on Jesus. Listen and try to figure
out what mistake Peter made.
READ—Matthew 14:22-33
ASK: What good things did Peter do? (1) He trusted Jesus
enough to get out of the boat, which is more than anyone else
did. (2) When he needed help, he called out to Jesus.
ASK: What do you think Peter’s mistake was? (He took his
eyes off Jesus and started focusing on the wind and waves.)
SAY: Bad things can happen to good people, but when bad
things happen God wants you to keep trusting Him. God will
always do what is best for you and, if you’re walking with Him,
He will cause all things to work together for your good. So,
when life gets confusing, keep your eyes on Jesus.
PRAY— List prayer requests below and thank God that you
can always trust Him and pray that when hard times come to
your kids, that they will always keep their eyes on Jesus.
