For Parents
Some nights a child carries worries or a sense that something was unfair into bed. This episode sits in Psalm 14:6 and shows them that God is a refuge, a safe place to run to, like ducking inside a warm house when the rain pours down. After the lights are off, you could remind them they do not need a key or special words, they can just bring God their worries and fears and tears. Then let the warmth of that safe place settle over them as they drift off to sleep.
