Children’s message 12/28/2014
contemporaneous notes

-         Mystery Box –
o   Tooth brush and dental floss

-         How do you take care of your teeth?
o   brush and floss
-         What happens if your don’t take care of them?
o   teeth get yellow
o   cavities
o   teeth fall out
-         You need to take care of your teeth
o   or bad stuff happens

-         Our relationship with God is like that

-         If we say we accept Jesus as Lord and Savior but don’t do anything else?
o   like saying we’re going to take care of our teeth and not take care of them
o   like getting a new puppy and not taking care of them

-         We need to read the bible, gather with other Christians,  maybe go to some bible studies
-         Otherwise the relationship can deteriorate
o   like teeth falling out

-         God wants a healthy/ good relationship

-         We need to do our part for the relationship to be strong.
