Daily Devotion (English) – 20.08.2023 (Kids Special)

 

BE CAREFUL

 

"So, if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed" - John 8:36

 

A cute little monkey was jumping around and playing very happily. The little monkey asked the mother “Every human wishes to go to heaven, how will it be?”. Mother said if you ask the monk he will know. The little monkey searched and found the place where the monk was. He asked the same question to the monk. He thought for a while and brought a banana to the little monkey and said, “Keep it safe”. He told him to bring it back when the monkey comes next day and sent it away.

 

The monkey went very happily with hope that next day it will know the answer. He was often looking the banana in his hand. Kept it safe so that he can take it next day. After a while it sniffed. Since the smell was good it licked. It thought what if to peal? I should not eat that’s it. Alas, no he thought that the monk had told me to bring it safely, so left the banana, and went to play. Even though it was jumping around on the tree, it could not control the thought of the banana. Well, it thought I'd just peel, it started peeling. The tongue drool on. Is it heaven? Or Is it a banana? The little monkey struggled and ended up eating the banana. How can the monkey visit the monk next day? Can't right?

 

Cuties, just like the little monkey who wanted to know about heaven but was defeated by the banana, you too should not be defeated by sensual sins. Satan will tell to you, just a small lie nothing wrong, steal, speaks bad words and no one sees you and you will not be caught, he will come as if he wants to make you happy. Don't listen to him! Even if you make a mistake, confess to Jesus and ask for forgiveness and be freed by deciding not to sin again. Okay, kids!

- Mrs. Anjali
