Growth

Listening to Grow

"A wise man will hear and increase learning."
Proverbs 1:5

Reflection

Some people only want to talk. The ones who really learn are the ones who listen. Listening to parents, teachers and God makes us grow fast.

Prayer

Father, give me open ears to learn from people who know more. Amen!

Talk about it as a family

  1. Who teaches you good things?
  2. Why do people who listen learn more?
  3. What is hard about listening?

5-minute activity

Interview a grandparent or older friend, by phone if needed, asking what they learned as a child. The child writes down one piece of advice to keep. Read Proverbs 1:5.
