There have been some scary things in the news recently.

 

Some people are sick, some are angry, and some are afraid. What can we do with our feelings of worry, fear, or anger? Tell each other your ideas.

 

One thing we can do is remember what God says. Can you sing along with this song and use a deep, deep voice?

 

Isaiah 41:10:

 

 

What is something you are worried about or afraid of?

 

Tell each other your answers and then snuggle close with mom or dad. Now listen to this song and imagine God saying these words to you.

 

Fear not for I am with you:

 

Sometimes when I think about scary things, I forget that God is with me. Does that happen to you? Hug someone tight and listen to this song, just to make sure we all remember God’s love.

 

Don’t forget to remember:

 

Remembering God’s love gives me courage to do what I can to help others.

 

What is something your family can do together to help others?

 

Talk about one of your fears that others might also have and make a list of ways you can help others be safe or feel loved. Do at least one of the things on your list this week.

 

Remember: God is always with you and will always love you!
