Today the kiddos and I discussed
The Parable of the Lost Son,
(aka The Prodigal Son),
found in Luke 15: 11-31.
We focused on the way the Father in the story
FORGAVE his son,
despite the wrongs the son had committed.
Then, the Father threw a
party in his returning son's honor.
Well, we just also had to join in the partying fun too...

So, after supper, we had some ...
...Forgive Cupcakes.Can't you make out the word
"Forgive" splattered across the cupcakes
with icing? :0)
OK, maybe this was NOT my best decorating effort...
...but the kiddos made them disappear anyways!Before we ate the dessert, we discussed the reason
we were celebrating,
and how we have to learn to forgive others
just like God forgives us.
God's forgiveness is sweeter
than ANY icing and sprinkle coated cupcake...

What a delicious way to open a discussion! Forgiveness can often be a tough lesson to learn, but an incredibly important one.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I love your sense of humor.
Love this idea!
ReplyDeleteThose look splendidly messy. I have a post scheduled to come up later this week, because I was all weird with my post scheduling this week. Who knows why.
