Message from Mrs Powell
What would you like to be when you grow up? Many people have dreams about the future and that is good. Have a look at the following video: https://youtu.be/ECP87EFic48
The video below tells the story of Joseph, a famous dreamer from the Bible. When Pharaoh put him in prison, Joseph dreamt of being let out, but it wasn’t until Pharaoh had some dreams of his own that Joseph was called upon to help and secured his own release from prison.
It is good to dream of being happy when we are older: happiness is vital! However, Jesus pointed out something important about happiness.
Jesus said that people would be happy if they did the following
- care about other people
- always try to be fair and just
- are kind and show mercy
- work to make peace
Dear God,
Please help us to work hard to achieve our ambitions and to become what we want to be.
Whatever we do or however we live our life, help us to remember the needs of others.
Help us to care about other people, to be fair and just,
To be kind and merciful and to make peace, wherever we are.
Amen.
