Have you ever been to a big store and while you fixed your sight on something you got lost? Sometimes we lose track in life. When we start to give attention to things that attract us instead of choosing and doing what is right, we get disconnected from God.

Start by taking some time to think of when you were lost, and God was calling you to follow him again and do what is right.
On a finger puppet sheep, write your name and cut around it. Do not forget to cut out two small circles for your fingers to fit in.
While you place your fingers in the sheep finger-puppet, pray God to help you listen to his voice and follow him.
