Psalm 16:10 | God Will Never Leave You
This episode rests a child in God's promise that He will never leave them, not even in the dark.
For Parents
For a child who does not love the dark, the long quiet of night can feel lonely. Tonight's verse, Psalm 16:10, hands them a promise as soft as a pillow, that God will not leave, not even in the darkest place. As you tuck them in, you might hold their hand and say, "There is no night so long that God would leave your side." Then let their eyes get heavy in that promise. God is staying, and He will be there when they wake.
