Imagine being Prime Minister of Australia when you are only 8 years old! Sounds a little crazy?

Well, Josiah was only 8 years old when he became King of Israel. He is our Star for this week, not because he was only 8 when he became king, but because ....

HE CHOOSE TO BE DIFFERENT

His father was a bad king. He didn’t worship and obey God, but worshipped idols instead. Josiah, on the other hand, obeyed God.

HE TRUSTED IN THE LORD

            The Bible tells us that when he was 16 Josiah started worshipping God.

HE SEARCHED FOR THE THINGS OF GOD

Josiah started off by seeking God. And then when they found the lost scrolls, he searched God’s Word for the right way to live! Then he prompted everyone else to do the same!

If we are to be ‘Shining Stars’ we too, need to search God’s Word, the Bible. Then we will know how God wants us to live as well.

This week’s ‘Big Idea:

SEARCH FOR GOD’S WORD!

Our Bible verse to learn and remember:
Think about the things of heaven, not the things of earth. Colossians 3:2
