一个画画手工，孩子们将看到耶稣如何回应我们的祷告并看顾我们的需要。
主题
耐心, 祷告, 供应
材料
纸张
蜡笔或记号笔
剪刀、胶水
时间
约15分钟
课前准备
上课前，将纸折成三等分，就像折成信封的样子（见图）。同时，打印门贴，并剪下每个门贴。每个孩子将需要一张折好的纸和一个门贴。
说明
1.做：
在黑板上写下“求、寻找和敲门”这些词。让孩子们把这些词按顺序抄在折纸每个部分的顶部。孩子们将画三幅画，折页的每部分上画一幅。第一幅画是他们向耶稣求。第二幅是在耶稣的帮助下寻找并找到。第三幅画是他们敲门或站在一扇打开的门旁边。
画完后，孩子们要把纸折成贺卡的样子，然后把门贴粘在前面。
2.说：
耶稣说："求，就给你们；寻找，就寻见；叩门，就给你们开门。"路加福音11:9
在这节经文中，耶稣让我们知道，我们可以大胆地祈祷，求神供应我们。对神来说，没有什么祷告是太小、太大、或太过的。祂只是希望我们先求他。当你祷告时，要相信神会回应你的祈求。祂不会到处打响指来实现你的愿望。如果你祈求的东西是有害的，或者你想要的理由是错误的，祂也许就不会回应这个祷告。或者祂会在以后或以不同的方式来回应。例如，如果我祈求一只小狗，但我知道我家里有人对狗过敏，神可能不会通过给我一只小狗来回答这个祈求。祂可能会给我一些更好的东西，比如一只天竺鼠。
(给每个孩子一张折纸。)我们要在这张折纸上画三幅画，一次一幅。
第一部分，我想让你们画一幅你自己向耶稣祈求的画。让我们一起想想该怎么画。(在孩子们想的时候，在黑板上画几个例子。然后给他们几分钟时间来画他们自己的画）。
第二部分，我想让你们画一幅自己寻找某样东西并找到的画。让我们一起想想该怎么画。(同样画几个例子，然后给他们几分钟时间画自己的画。)
第三部分，我想让你画一幅你敲门，而门打开的画。再次，让我们想一想，可以画些什么。(再次画几个例子，然后给孩子们几分钟时间来完成第三幅画）。
现在让我们把纸折起来，把我们的门贴粘在前面。

PICTURE BOXES
A coloring project that will show how Jesus is there to answer our prayers and provide for our needs. by Kristy Thornton
TOPICS: Patience, Prayer, Provision
MATERIALS: Paper Door stickers [PDF] Click here Crayons or markers Scissors, glue
DURATION: Approximately 15 minutes Click here for sample of finished craft
PREPARATION: Before class, fold sheets of paper into three equal sections, as in folding to fit inside an envelope (see example). Also, print the door sticker sheet and cut out each sticker. Each child will need one folded sheet of paper and one door sticker.
WHAT YOU WILL DO: Write the words ASK, SEEK, and KNOCK on the board. Have the children copy these words at the top of each section, in that order. The children will draw three pictures, one on each folded section. The first picture will be of them asking Jesus for something. The second will be looking for something and finding it with help from Jesus. The third picture will be of them knocking on a door or standing next to an open door. After drawing the pictures, the children will fold their sheet of paper to resemble a greeting card, and glue their door sticker to the front.
WHAT YOU WILL SAY: Jesus said, "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." Luke 11:9 In this verse, Jesus is letting us know that we can pray boldly and ask God to provide for us. There is no prayer too small, too big, or too crazy for God. He just wants us to ask Him first. When you pray, believe that God will answer your prayers. Now, He doesn't go around snapping His fingers granting wishes. If you pray for something that is harmful, or if the reason you want it is wrong, He probably will not answer that prayer. He may answer it later or in a different way. For example, if I pray for a puppy, but I know someone in my family is allergic to dogs, God may not answer that prayer by giving me a puppy. He may give me something even better, like a guinea pig. (Give each child a folded sheet of paper.) We are going to draw three pictures on this folded sheet of paper, one picture at a time. In the first section, I want you to draw a picture of yourself asking Jesus for something. Let's come up with ideas together. (Draw examples on the board as the children come up with ideas. Then give them a few minutes to draw their own pictures.). In the second section, I want you to draw a picture of yourself looking for something and finding it. Let's come up with some ideas together. (Draw examples as before and give them a few minutes to draw their own picture.) In the third section, I want you to draw a picture of yourself knocking on the door, and the door opening. Again, let's think of some ideas of what we can draw. (Draw examples again, and give the children a few minutes to complete their third picture.) Now let's fold our sheet of paper, and glue our door sticker on the front.
