When I Feel Worried, I Can Trust God
Ask Your Kids:
• In our story, who was causing Gideon to feel worried? (Midianites) Gideon was worried because the Midianites did lots of awful things to his people, the Israelites. What were some of those things?
• Gideon was worried about what might happen, but God comforted him by showing him a few miraculous signs. What were some of the signs? (Set fire to the stew, wet the wool but kept the ground dry, wet the ground but kept the wool dry) After God showed Gideon the miraculous signs, Gideon trusted God more and more!
Just like Gideon, when we’re feeling worried, we can pray and ask God to comfort us. Whether we’re worried about things going on at school, at home, with our families, or anything in between, God is always with us—and that’s our greatest comfort!
Memory Verse:
“But even if we (thumbs to chest)
don’t feel at ease, (cross arms in front of body)
God is greater (point both hands up)
than our feelings, (hand over heart)
and He knows everything.” (fingers to temples)
