Live your Faith
WISDOM in the Bible 
WHAKAARONUI

How can we live lives full of wisdom?
​

Picture
Picture
To become wise we need to spend time in prayer so that we can learn to hear the voice of God - we call this discernment.
​Once we discern Gods voice we need to have the courage to live into it.

Discuss what these situations might look like if we choose to live in WISDOM.


​1.Your friend got picked for the top sports team and you didn't.
What do you do? Why?

2. You are throwing a ball around inside. You break something and think you can get away with saying you accidentally bumped it on your way past.
​What do you do? Why?

3. A kid at school is getting bullied by some of your friends. You know it's not OK and you try to sneak away. They take the kid's lunchbox and throw it to you.
What do you and? Why?

4. The local beach clean up day which you have committed to is on the same day as your birthday.
