1. Gods Love Metaphor Little Shoe, Big Shoes
Hold up the small pair and show it to the group. Explain to kids parents help us
learn to walk and guide us through the beginning of our life. We get lots of hugs
and kisses because our parents shower us with love. However, as we get older our
parents are not with us every minute of the day. Once we learn to walk, we
become more independent. Eventually we do things for ourselves like make our
bed, tie our shoes and go to school.
Hold up the second pair of shoes. Tell kids that many children are sad about
becoming an adult. They still want kisses, hugs and lots of love from Mom and
Dad. Explain to children that no matter how big they are, God loves them as their
father. We are never too big to sit in Gods lap. Let kids know that they are never
too old to experience Gods love. He will always be with them. And His shoes are
always bigger!
Question: Why is Gods Love bigger?
Gods love is deeper, bigger and better than any other kind of love you can
receive.

Yet, O Lord, you are our father; we are the clay and you are the potter. We are
all the work of your hands
