Psalm 15:4 for Kids: Keep Your Promises
A bedtime reminder from Psalm 15:4 that keeping our word is a gift we give people, and God always keeps every promise He makes to us.
For Parents
Some nights a child thinks about a promise they made, or one someone made to them. This episode sits in Psalm 15:4 and describes a person who keeps their word whatever the cost, and how good it feels to trust a friend who keeps a promise. After the lights are off, you could remind them that when they say they will do something, they do it, and that God always keeps His promises to them too. Then let that trust settle over them as they drift off to sleep.
