New Beginnings

A New Heart

"I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you."
Ezekiel 36:26

Reflection

God wants to change our hearts so we can love Him and the people around us better. Asking for that change is the best prayer we can pray.

Prayer

God, change my heart and teach me to love the way You love. Amen!

Talk about it as a family

  1. What is the difference between a hard heart and a soft heart?
  2. Who would you like to love better this year?
  3. Why is asking God for a new heart a good prayer?

5-minute activity

Hold a hard lump of modeling clay and try to shape it. Then warm it in your hands until it softens and make a heart together. Talk about how God softens our hearts. Read Ezekiel 36:26.
