Treasure Box Activity
If you're following along with the short activities that your family can do together with the items from the scavenger hunt, here's the next activity:
The Incarnation: The doll in the box represents baby Jesus, but do we ever really take time to think about what it means that our all-powerful, all-knowing, all-forgiving, all-loving God decided to come and live with us as a human being; and NOT as a big and powerful King, but as a little tiny baby? God chose to be with us and experience life like we do. Jesus was human in all ways but sin. But even Jesus struggled with the hard things that happened to him, and when the hard things did happen, he prayed that God’s will be done, not his. What are some difficult things that are happening in your lives right now? As a family offer these to God by praying an Our Father being particularly mindful that when we pray we say the words, “thy will be done” just like Jesus did.
