Many of us remember a special toy or plush friend from our Toy Box that gave us comfort and companionship when we needed it. It’s part of growing up. We were made to want someone with us. And that Someone is Who we will be talking about this month. He is the only One who can truly always be with us.
We will say countless times this month, “God is always with me.” We want our preschoolers to believe it with all of their hearts. With this truth as a foundation, they can be brave and wise. They can have courage and strength.
Then, when the times comes that their favorite toy, blanket, or pillow cannot be with them, they will know that there is Someone who loves them and will always be with them. No matter where they go or what they do God is always with them . . . and you.
Curriculum:
Week One (September 5)
Story Focus: God is with me so I can be brave. Week one, we tell the story of baby Moses and his mom. Moses’ mom believed that God was always with her and that God would always be with her baby. That is what helped her be brave enough to hide Moses in that tall grass.
Week Two (September 12)
Story Focus: God is with me so I can be wise. Week two, we will learn about a remarkable leader named Deborah. God was with her. And, because of that, she was wise enough to lead God’s people and tell them the right things to do. God is always with us so we can be wise, too.
Week Three (September 19)
Story Focus: God is with me so I can be courageous. Week three is the super exciting account of a woman named Rahab and how courageous she was to hide Joshua’s spies. Had she been caught, it would have been the end of her, but she had heard about the amazing things God had done and she wanted to be on His side!
Week Four (September 26)
Story Focus: God is with me so I can be strong. We will find ourselves in a royal court during week four as we hear about the strong actions of a queen named Esther. She risked her life to gain an audience with the king and plead for the lives of her people.
