FIAR: J & P

Science - Health

Talked about developing basic good habits to help prevent illnesses and keep general good health. Some we came up with were: brushing teeth, washing hands, eating good foods, drinking water (fluids), exercise.

Bible - order and discernment

Luke 9:14 (feeding 5,000) shows how Jesus gave order to a situation that could easily get confusing and out of hand. 1 Cor 14:40 instruct the church that everything should be done decently and in order. Tied this into the girls always having an orderly routine.

Philippians 4:8 - "Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things." - Talked about how this verse wants us to think on the good things God gave us and to not dwell on the things that are bad. (The girls smiled at the good...)

Proverbs 1:10 - "My son, if sinners entice you, do not consent" - Talked about this verse a lot and how sometimes people, even friends, can ask you to do things that are not good. They may even say they are good! But you should use discernment to think about what is good and bad, and if something is bad, say "no way!" We decided to memorize this verse. (...and frowned at the bad.)
