Morality Monday--J is for Joy

"Do not grieve for the JOY of the Lord is your strength." (Nehemiah 8:10)

This week, talk about what it means to be joyful! Take turns acting out what joy feels like to each person in the family. Then, teach your children the following acronym:

J=Jesus 1st
O=Others 2nd
Y=Yourself last

Talk about how to implement this idea in your lives. How can you put Jesus first? What does it mean to put others ahead of yourself? How can you do all of this with a joyful attitude?
