Standing Up Straight

Name Date

Read the Story

Jesus was teaching on a day of rest. A woman came who was bent over. She had been bent for eighteen years. She could not stand up straight.

Jesus saw her and called her over. He put His hands on her. Right away she stood up straight! She praised God.

Jesus told a story about a tiny seed. A man planted it in his garden. It grew into a big tree. Birds made nests in it. God's Kingdom grows like that seed.

Memory Verse

“He laid his hands on her, and immediately she stood up straight and glorified God.”
