Life is full of unknown developments that force us to lean on the Lord and trust Him for guidance in all things. We are often called to obey God without knowing the eventual outcome of circumstances, having faith that He is with us and will help us. This lesson reminds children of those principles while telling the story of Joshua and the Israelites crossing the Jordan. Use activities and conversation to highlight the importance of trust and explain God’s constant steadfastness.
God is with us always! We often fail to understand His will and ways, but we can be assured that He has good plans for us. The Ark of the Covenant reminded Israelites of God’s presence and faithfulness, and He provided for them. Today, we know that Jesus allows us to be in the presence of the Father, and that He goes with us no matter what. We can trust and obey, knowing He will supply our needs and bless our lives.
