BIBLE MEMORY TUNE
When we speak good things, behave with kindness and love, present ourselves as modest & separate people, we are walking in the paths of uprightness. The paths of uprightness are well-lit by the Word of God. The Bible is our flashlight.
We do not ever want to be sneaky, or to lie, or to dress and behave in ways that do not please the Lord. If we choose to do wrong things, then we are choosing to walk in darkness.
One night, after you've already turned out the lights and are snuggled up in bed, you may realize you need a book or a glass of water, or something from the other side of the room. If you do not turn on a light you might trip over something and hurt yourself. Walking in the dark can feel scary because you do not know if you will bump into something. It is dangerous to walk without a light.
People who do not stay on the path of uprightness are choosing to walk in darkness. That's when people hurt not only themselves, but also the people who love them. We turn on the Bible-flashlight by obeying the Word of God. Let's stay on the bright, wonderful path of uprightness!

THOUGHTS OR DISCUSSIONS
Have you ever tripped on something in the dark? Have you ever used a flashlight to see better?
(As an additional means of helping children remember this lesson flashlights may be given to each child. You may choose to write the word, "Bible," on the flashlights.)
Ask God to make you aware if you're ever drifting toward the ways of darkness.
PRAYER AND COMMITMENT
Tell God that you always want the Word to light your path.Ask God to make you aware if you're ever drifting toward the ways of darkness.
