NAME:
QUIET TIME
One-Year Daily Devotional for grades 1 & 2
Introducing your
Quiet Time a special time that you set aside each day to read God’s Word, to get to know Him better, and to learn how He wants you to live. During this time, God speaks to you through His Holy Word, the Bible, and you speak to God through prayer. What an adventure! As a Christian, spending this time in God’s Word every day is very important for you to grow closer to Him.
This booklet is divided into two sections: Quiet Time Personal Activity Pages Prayer Diary where creative activities challenge you to understand the truths from the Bible every day.
where you can write prayer requests to remind yourself to pray for people that you care about and things that are happening.
Hey, Parents! This Quiet Time is a great opportunity for you to have fun together with your child. Here are some tips to help your child get the most out of their time in God’s Word. • Sit down with your child around the same time each day. • Gather supplies needed for activities. • Use the Bible to look up references together. • Talk through the activity and personal application.
• Encourage your child to use the prayer suggestions in the Pray section and pray with them. • Complete the week by documenting how many days were completed and writing an encouraging note.
There is a Word of Life Quiet Time available for every person in your family! Look up Family Devotionals at wolstore.org. Since all the Quiet Times are based on the same Scripture passage each day, it’s a great way to get the whole family talking about what they’re learning from God’s Word. 1

MY BIBLE MY QUIET TIME CRAYONS OR MARKERS A QUIET PLACE 2
My Personal Prayer Diary Spend time with God through prayer. Keeping a Personal Prayer Diary is a great way to remind yourself to pray for specific people and things. It also reminds you to thank God and to tell others when He answers your prayers. FRIENDS AND FAMILY Ask God to help you to be more obedient and get along with others, so you can become the person He wants you to be. Your prayer time could include praying for friends and family, especially those who don’t know Jesus as their Savior. MISSIONARIES As you learn about missionaries who serve the Lord around the world, you can pray for them, too. PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING Some of your prayer time should be used to thank and praise God. Thank Him for sending Jesus to die on the cross for your sins. You can thank Him for things like your family, home, friends, and church, and for creating the beautiful world we live in. YOU CAN TALK TO GOD ABOUT ANYTHING! If someone in your family will be traveling, you can ask God to protect them. You can also ask God to meet needs for things like clothing, food, or even a job for your dad. Really, you can talk to God about anything. But be careful not to be selfish! Don’t ask for things that you want only for yourself.

God’s ways are not the world’s ways. In the world, those with money and nice things are thought to be better than those without. God does not think this way, and neither should you. You should treat everyone with kindness.

Everyone sins. Even if you break God’s commands just a little bit, you have disobeyed Him and sinned. Find the answer by writing the first letter of each picture on the line.
If you think a mean thought, tell just part of the truth, or take a tiny piece of candy without asking, you are still guilty of Counting by 5’s, connect the dots to see where to find God’s ways.
