Some nights a child wonders where God is or how to find Him. This episode sits in Psalm 14:2 and shows them that seeking God simply means looking for Him, through a prayer, a Bible story, or a wonder about the stars. After the lights are off, you could say one quiet prayer together, then remind them that the moment they reach for God, He is already beside them. Then let that nearness settle over them as they drift off to sleep.
