Hi everyone! Welcome to the 10 Days of Character Studies: DAY 4!

Today we’re going to be addressing what it means to be honest. This is such an important study for us to go through. Not only is honesty addressed in the 10 commandments, but it’s one of the more prevalent sins among children. Most often they’re lying to protect themselves from receiving a consequence.

 

 

Psalm 19:14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer.

Honesty

So what does it mean to be a honest? Not disposed to cheat or defraud; not deceptive or fraudulent, to be truthful.

We’ll be going through the story of the serpent in the Garden of Eden, the story of Abimelek’s lie, Rebekah and Jacob’s lie, and the Sanhedrin producing false witness in regards to Stephen.

We will learn how our lies will always find us out, and that nothing can be hidden from God. We will also learn the blessings of obedience when we choose to be honest and trustworthy before the Lord.

  1. Wow, you have so many great ideas. I’ve been trying to talk to my children each month about a different character trait. These character traits are so important to teach so that we have a world of children that will grow up to be responsible and capable adults.

  2. I have to agree with Heidi…. These are truly a blessing. I have seen such a change in my own attitude/action! Thank you SO much for sharing these, it is good for EVERYONE! 🙂 I find it amazing how our children reflect us on so many levels! I LOVE how God reveals through them! It can be a bit convicting- but very encouraging to see the changes! 🙂 I’m so grateful for GRACE! Have a great day and thank you again for sharing this Erica!
