Materials<\/strong>
\nBring in a variety of objects and tools. You might use drawing materials (i.e. rulers, colored pencils, colored paper, scissors, glue, stickers, etc)<\/p>\n

Activity<\/strong>
\nHave everyone create something with the tools you have provided. You could ask them to use the tools to draw things that are strong. Then bring the tools back together and command the tools to create representations of things that are strong. Of course the tools will simply lie where they are put.<\/p>\n

Application<\/strong>
\nThese tools are very useful, but only when they are in someone’s hands. The same thing is true of us. We can be useful to God, but only when we place ourselves in his hands.<\/p>\n

Variation<\/strong>
\nThis can be used as a teaching activity for youth by supplying a variety of tools and materials to youth and asking them to create something that represents a particular idea or concept. Award youth for the best creation, most creative representation, most realistic, etc.<\/p>\n

This object lesson reminds us that we can only accomplish the things we were designed to do when we place ourselves in God’s hands.
