Today, my kids came back with a cute little toy caterpillar each, which they had made during their Silver Boxes class.
Oh by the way, Silver Boxes is the name given to our church's Children's Ministry.
These cute little creatures can be attached to their school bags, pencilboxes or even handphones, and can become an instant conversational piece for classmates and relatives alike.
If you were to study them, you will notice that they are made up of 5 tiny balls arranged in a particular sequence -- brown, red, white, green, yellow -- and there is a meaning behind this.
1. The brown represents the originally sinful nature of man.
2. The red represents Jesus' blood that was shed for man's redemption.
3. The white represents our righteous state after being cleansed by His blood.
4. The green represents the need to grow in our spiritual journey.
5. Finally, the gold represents our ultimate destiny -- being united with God in heaven.
In other words, the gospel story!
Praise God for the innovativeness and creativity that He has given to our Silver Box leaders (otherwise known as Sunday School teachers!)
