经节(12分钟)
祂不永远怀怒，因祂乐意施慈爱。-弥迦书7:18b
提前做好准备，在10-20张索引卡上写上 "MERCY"，并把它们藏在教室里。然后与孩子们一起大声朗读这节经文，并解释说，当我们做坏事时，神会给我们第二次机会，因为祂爱我们。让全班寻找 "MERCY"卡片。一旦找到所有的卡片，如果时间允许的话，谈谈 "MERCY"这个词中的字母，并要求孩子们和你一起按顺序说出这些字母。最后，再一次向全班读这节经文。
故事(15分钟)
介绍：
弥迦是神的使者之一，也就是先知，他警告希伯来人，神会因为他们的不顺从而惩罚他们。然而，神也说祂所有的应许都会实现，包括关于救主耶稣基督的应许。神的大怜悯给了希伯来人另一个机会，让他们可以顺从和侍奉神。
读 弥迦书7:18（神施予大赦和怜悯）
告诉全班同学，你有一个重要的信息，双手拢在嘴边大声读出这节经文。然后请孩子们也双手拢在嘴边说："神很高兴给我们怜悯"，练习分享这个信息。告诉孩子们，我们也应该乐意给别人第二次机会。
问题讨论：
1. 神会一直愤怒吗？(不会。)
2. 当神施予怜悯时，祂的感觉如何？(乐意/高兴。)
3. 我们施舍怜悯时，应该有什么感觉？(乐意/高兴。）
读 以弗所书2:4-5（耶稣是神对最大的怜悯）
帮助全班同学明白，神给我们第二次机会，或者说怜悯我们，是因为祂爱我们。另外，祂所做的最仁慈的事就是把耶稣赐给我们。
问题讨论：
1. 神为什么怜悯我们？(因为祂爱我们。）
2. 谁是耶稣，为什么我们需要祂？(祂是我们的救主，为我们的罪而死。）
3. 我们如何接受耶稣，这个神最大的表示怜悯的礼物？(通过请求神的宽恕，相信耶稣是神的儿子，并请求祂将我们从罪中拯救出来。）
4. 我们应该与他人分享关于耶稣的什么信息？(祂为我们的罪而死，祂能拯救我们。）
结论
我们知道神对我们非常仁慈，因为祂给我们第二次机会，并差派祂的儿子耶稣为我们的罪而死。我们可以效法神的榜样，给别人第二次机会。不要忘记告诉别人，神是仁慈的，耶稣为我们的罪而死。

说："请举手，如果......"
1. 神给了你第二次机会/怜悯。
2. 你的父母给了你第二次机会/怜悯。

鼓励孩子们，承认怜悯人是很难的，因为我们会犯罪，会做坏事。然而，神给了我们怜悯和第二次机会，所以我们也当忍耐，给别人第二次机会，以显示神的爱。

BIBLE VERSE (12 minutes) "You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy." Micah 7:18b NIV Prepare ahead of time by writing “MERCY” on 10-20 index cards and hiding them throughout the classroom. Then read the verse out loud with the children and explain that God gives us second chances when we do bad things because He loves us. Allow the class to search for the “MERCY” cards. Once all the cards have been found, if time allows, talk about the letters in the word “MERCY” and ask the children to say them in order with you. Lastly, read the verse one last time to the class.
BIBLE STORY (15 minutes) Introduction: Micah was one of God’s messengers, or prophets, who warned the Hebrew people that God was going to punish them for their disobedience. However, God also said that all of His promises would come true, including the promise of a Savior, Jesus Christ. God’s great mercy gave the Hebrew people another chance to obey and serve Him. Read Micah 7:18 (God gives great forgiveness and mercy) Tell the class that you have an important message and read the verse out loud by cupping your hands around your mouth. Then ask the children to say, “God is happy to give us mercy” by cupping their hands around their mouths to practice sharing the message. Tell the children that we should also be happy to give others a second chance to do the right thing. Discussion Questions: 1. Does God stay angry forever? (No.) 2. How does God feel when He gives mercy? (Happy or delightful.) 3. How should we feel to give mercy? (Happy or delightful.) Read Ephesians 2:4-5 (Jesus is God’s greatest display of mercy) Help the class understand that God gives us second chances, or mercy, because He loves us. Also, the most merciful thing He’s ever done is give us Jesus. Discussion Questions: 1. Why does God give us mercy? (Because He loves us.) 2. Who is Jesus and why do we need Him? (He is our Savior who died to pay for our sins.) 3. How do we accept Jesus, God’s greatest gift of mercy? (By asking God for forgiveness, believing in Jesus as God’s son, and asking Him to save us from our sins.) 4. What message about Jesus should we share with others? (That He died for our sins and can save us.) Conclusion: We know God is very merciful with us because He gives us second chances and sent His son, Jesus, to die for our sins. We can follow God’s example by giving others second chances. Don’t forget to tell others the message that God is merciful and Jesus died for our sins.

PRAYER/SNACK (10 minutes) Further info? Click here Start by praying to God and thanking Him for the mercy He gives us every day. Then serve the children crackers and small cups of water or juice. During the snack, talk about biblical examples of God’s mercy, such as Jonah and the whale. Discuss God's mercy and how He wants everyone to know Him.
CLOSING ACTIVITY (10 minutes) Remind the children that everyone can receive mercy and second chances from God. Say, “Raise your hand if…” 1. God gives you second chances (mercy). 2. Your parents give you second chances (mercy). 3. You can give second chances (mercy) to others. Encourage the children by admitting that mercy is hard because we sin and do bad things. However, God gives us mercy and second chances, so we can also be patient and give second chances to others to show God’s love.
