Courage (Nabil H., Virtues In Us #32)

This Little Light of Mine

This little light of mine, I’m going to let it shine x 3

Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.

Won’t let anyone put it out, I’m going to let it shine x 3

Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.

Hide it under my hat? No! I’m going to let it shine x 3

Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.

Take my light around the world, I’m going to let it shine x 3

Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.

Make Me Fearless

Make me fearless like a jungle lion, like a roaring ocean,

like an eagle in flight.

Make me fearless like Mulla Husayn, like Tahirih,

like ‘Abdu’l-Baha.

Comments about the lesson

We loved “This Little Light of Mine” and ended up singing it almost every day this month! It was helpful for me to remember my children as precious little lights I need to encourage to shine out in the world! We changed the words to “take my light to the world” (versus around) since it was easier to sing.

 

Trying a new food took a lot of courage for my son (Daily Activity #13). He’s not one to generally like trying new foods but I was surprised how much the two weeks leading up to trying the new food helped prepare him for this. We cooked it together and when it was time to eat, he shut his eyes and took a bite very quickly! And was proud after that he had mustered up the courage to try it.

 

For #15 when we were showing the letter “c” with our hand, we decided to pretend to be cats, couches and cucumbers, it was a lot of fun!

 

I liked Daily Activity #16 because it reminded me that there are practical things I can do to feel more courageous – like singing my favorite prayer at the top of my lungs or doing some quick push-ups to feel stronger! I plan to do this next time we visit a neighbor in hopes of teaching.

 

For #17, we really enjoyed learning how to use a ruler together.
