I am preparing a lesson for Granger Kids this weekend. I am teaching the 2nd-3rd graders or the Jungle Room. Anyway I have been looking at this story in Daniel 5.
When I am reading and preparing a lesson I try and imagine myself in the story. Well this story is no different. What happens to the king in this story would scare me to death as well.
Well you see King Belshazzar is throwing a feast (or party) and his actions make God angry and this happens...
5 "Suddenly, they saw the fingers of a human hand writing on the plaster wall of the king’s palace, near the lampstand. The king himself saw the hand as it wrote, 6 and his face turned pale with fright. His knees knocked together in fear and his legs gave way beneath him." Daniel 5:5-6 (NLT)

He was freaked out.
Now that would scare me. Every thing in the above passage is true. If I saw a hand and nothing else writing on the wall I would definitely have to change my pants. That would be totally freaky!
This was just something that hit me this morning as I was preparing my lesson for this weekend.
