This one is hard for kids (and honestly it’s hard for us too)! What do we do in the wait, how do we not waste it? Nehemiah did several things we can learn from: He learned God’s Word, He asked God what to do, he thought about what he needed, he showed wisdom in his approach to the King, and he was ready to move when God said it was time. This applies to all of us….kids and adults! Have a discussion about a time your kids had to wait for something (a vacation, summer, or even an answer to prayer). How do they not “waste” the wait. How can they apply this to waiting for God’s answers or direction?
