I’m quite a decent cook. But every time I start cooking – even the most commonest dishes whose process I probably know very well from muscle memory, I always keep my diary of recipes open in front of me just to be doubly sure. 

 

Likewise, God has given us a recipe for how to live our lives. That recipe is found right here in the Bible. The Bible contains all the ingredients and instructions that we need to live a life full of blessings. Who wrote the recipe? GOD! Just like a baker decides which ingredients to combine for the perfect tasty treat, God has determined what we need in our lives to make our lives better. 

 

Ask the children to take their parents’ help and cook something! The first thing they must do is find a recipe or get one from their mom or dad and then follow the recipe to the jot and tittle. They don’t have to go all Master Chef and make something overtly exotic. A simple fruit salad or a Bombay toast or even Maggi Noodles will do!! 

 

Once done, ask them to take a paper and  answer the below questions.

 

1. Why do you think is a recipe important in making a dish?

2. How can God’s word be compared to a recipe?

 

Ask them to take a picture of their dish with the answer sheet on the side.
