Washed Clean


This is Bob. We were doing an activity with balloons today, where I had kids pop balloons and then try to repair them with tape, and talked about our broken relationship with God. Then they got new balloons to show how Jesus fixed our relationship with God.

One boy in my class decided to name his balloon Bob. And he used washable marker to draw hair and a face on Bob. Of course, washable marker on balloon just makes a smudgy mess. Pretty soon this boy had ink all over his hands. I told him to wash his hands, and he did, taking Bob with him.

When I looked over at the sink, this boy was washing Bob, too. And when he finished he proclaimed, "Bob's sins have been washed away!"

Yay! That was not part of my lesson...but he got it!
