Intro:
Hi kids, this is Dorette with an encouraging word for Kids today. I hope you are realizing how much more God has for you. We will be talking about MORE in the coming weeks, and I hope you get a big picture of all of the good things God has in store for you. Be blessed today.
Sometimes we can get overwhelmed by stuff that is happening in our life. That happens easily to adults, but it can happen to kids, too. When that happens, do you have someone to talk to? Do you have someone to lean on? It is an important lesson to learn early on in life, that even if we don’t have someone “with skin on” that we can talk to right at the moment, God is always near. In fact, He loves us to run to Him. He is like a friend that we can talk to “without skin on”! Once we come to know God, we are connected with Him in a way that anytime we whisper His name, He’ll be there. He is willing and ready to listen to you. When you tell Him what is going on, often just His presence in your heart will make you feel like everything will be alright. What a great thing to know. Sometimes in the midst of something hard, it feels like it will go on like that forever. But be of good cheer! Better days are coming. It may be hard for the moment, but hold on, God is working on your behalf to make a good outcome for you. God can turn any situation around, and he is so good at making good out of things that are bad. So if it isn’t good yet, have a little bit of patience, because that means it’s not done yet. Just like a cake in the oven. You know all those ingredients will bake together to make a tasty cake. But if you try to eat the cake before it is fully cooked, yuck! So remember God is working, and everything will be alright!
