Psalm 16:5 | God Holds Your Tomorrow
This episode helps a child hand tomorrow's worries to God, who already holds their future in His hands.
For Parents
Some kids lie awake running tomorrow through their minds, the test, the game, the thing they are not sure about. Tonight's verse, Psalm 16:5, tells them God already holds their future, so they do not have to carry it into the dark. As you say goodnight, you might have them picture setting tomorrow gently in God's hands, like handing over something precious. Then let them breathe slower. God has tomorrow, and He has them. Rest now.
