What we can learn from the life of Joshua . . .





From the life of Joshua I have learnt to always talk to God first; obey God in all matters; don't look at the negative side of things look at the bright side!    By Caleb M

From the story of Joshua I have learnt if I have a problem I can talk to God whenever I want.  Also if it's God's way then do God's way.  Believe in God whatever you do.  Follow God wherever you go.  By Caleb Y

From the story of Joshua in the Bible I have learnt to stick to God's plan even if others think it's silly.  Listen to God and do what He says.  By Dom

From the story of Joshua in the Bible I have learnt to always talk to God when I am confused about something.  By Lile

From the story of Joshua in the Bible I have learnt that if you don't know what to do you go and talk to God.  Obey what God tells me to do.  Put God as number one.  By Nikiya

From the story of Joshua in the Bible I have learnt to trust the Lord even though things are hard at times, ask God for help when things are hard.  By Dre

From the story of Joshua in the Bible I have learnt put God as number one; Listen to God when he talks to you; Ask God first before you choose what you want to do; If' it's Gods way then do it all the time; God always wants to give you the best; Whatever God wants you to do will always work out in the end; Trust God with what he says for you to do".   By Rachel

Our memory verse this week . . . Psalm 46 v 10

He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
    I will be exalted among the nations,
    I will be exalted in the earth.”


Here are some of our thoughts . . .

Caleb Y - "It means that He, one day, will have the whole earth singing and praising.  The two words that hit me were "Be still" - i think it means don't be scared in the presence of the Lord."

Oscar - My words - "He says "Be still and know that I am the one to praise; I will be honoured among all countries, I will be praised in all of the earth".

Cyrus - my version - "God is saying to me . . . calm your soul and put me first then you will have the best life anyone has ever lived.  I am King of Kings.  I will be praised and exalted every day."

Jessie - my prayer - "I will be a kind girl.  I will respect my teacher.  I will respect my family you gave me.  I will have humility before you.  I will talk about you any where I go".

Rachel has found some volcano photos for us . . .
