WELS Early Childhood Ministry Educator’s Devotions

It might almost feel annoying to be grateful...

To find contentment in what we have already produced can be tricky...

Let us be humbled and do our work faithfully...

Our cross, alone, is too heavy to bear, but we are not alone.

Praise God for what the world thought was defeat, was actually a victory that we can joyfully call our own.

God measures you solely by what Christ has done in your place.

God's Word doesn't just leave us wounded. It heals.

Those treasures don't last...

lesson plans, story Bibles, puppets, snacks, songs, and stickers...

God wants to hear from you...

In a world that glorifies “busy,” let's encourage each other to rest...

The bean seed becomes a sprout...

Do the students in your classroom have any assigned jobs...

I will not be shaken...

Not “you might be” or “you should be,” but “you are.”

“No, Mom - look at me!”

The truth is, we want to be in control...

As much as we strive for harmony and teamwork, we often slip into selfishness...

And what IS true joy?

If you knew that your time on earth was nearly over, what would you do?

This sign for trust creates a picture...

God gives us joy when we remember that he has saved us from our sins...

May the empty tomb and God's love to us drive away the distractions...

The empty tomb was proof that he could now triumph in Easter glory!

Our royal Savior, Jesus became common and walked among sinners...

Perhaps an independent attitude does not disappear as one becomes an adult...

And another added sadly, “We already did the wrong things.”

What do you do to resist temptation?

“But Mom!”, she said, “what if there is a WOLF coming around the bend?”

Sometimes my sweet tooth gets me into trouble...

“Why did they let you out?”

My students love the opposite game.

What are your strengths?

Oh, to have the confidence of a four-year-old!

Be prepared! This is the teacher's mantra.

In fact, nothing in this world will last forever. Except Jesus!

Do you think God is giving you a short cup?

There is a cure for an identity crisis!

God's people had to wait a long time for Jesus to be born.

“If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.”

But then after what felt like an eternity of silence, one name changed everything: Jesus.

Maybe you can't remember the last time you felt like singing and shouting for joy.
