Family

Brothers Who Help

"A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity."
Proverbs 17:17

Reflection

Brothers argue, borrow clothes, tattle and then defend you. God put siblings in our lives so we learn to love up close, mess and all.

Prayer

Father, teach me to love my siblings well. Amen!

Talk about it as a family

  1. What is good about having brothers, sisters or cousins?
  2. When did a sibling or cousin help you?
  3. How can you help a sibling or friend today?

5-minute activity

Siblings or cousins work together on a task, like tidying a room or making a snack, one helping the other. If the child has no siblings, do it with a friend or cousin by video. Read Proverbs 17:17.
