Sometimes being good isn’t so easy. Isn’t that true? Sometimes someone tells you to do something, and you wanna do something else. Then you have a choice to make. Either be good and do good. Or take the chance of getting in trouble. That’s when you really need some help remembering what’s right and what’s wrong. If you don’t know, you could be in big trouble. But there’s a way you can stay out of big trouble. Wanna know what it is?
The only way to avoid a lot of trouble in your life is to act like you work for Jesus.
It’s the only way you can be good and do good.
Maybe you’ve heard somebody say, “What would Jesus do?” Instead of wondering what Jesus would do, start reading His word. You’ll read what He DID. And you’ll know how He wants you to be. You won’t have to guess.
There’s a place in the Bible where it says to be good and do good with a true heart. It doesn’t matter if you’re giving orders or taking them. Jesus wants you to know when you’re good to others and you do good things, He’ll do that for you. Pretty cool, huh?
So, if your mom or dad tell you to do something, do it with a happy heart. Act like you’re doing it for Jesus. And mom”dad”when you tell your kids to do something, tell them with a happy heart. Act like Jesus would want you to act. When you do, don’t be surprises when you get better reactions. There’s no good reason to threat. And kids”there’s no good reason to whine or complain.
So, you see, it’s everybody’s job to be good and do good. If everybody would just remember how happy it makes Jesus, maybe we could all get along a lot better. Here’s a rhyme to help you remember.
Be good and do good
Just like Jesus would.
Make sure it’s understood.
Everybody really should
Be good and do good.
Stay tuned,
