A Strong Faith Brings Peace
TALKING TO GOD
Steady, steadfast, unwavering, firm, reliable, solid – these words describe who God is. Tell God as you pray how you appreciate Him for these characteristics.
DIVING IN
Prepare two surface areas: a table top and a soft carpet. Roll a toy car or marble across each type of surface. The goal is to see which type of surface allows the object to roll farther.
GOING DEEPER
Just as it’s easier to roll things across a firm table top, a firm faith makes it easier for you as you go through the good and bad things in life. Faith brings a lot of blessings, including peace. Psalm 29:11 says “The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.” However, when you don’t trust God, you have faith similar to a soft carpet; you get bogged down and have trouble getting through the hard things in life. That’s why you need to pray for God to draw you closer to Him and to build your faith in Him
TALKING TO EACH OTHER
- Describe a time when your faith has grown. What helped you grow in your faith?
- How have you felt God’s peace? What did it feel like?
- God is the author of peace and every good thing. Have you asked Him for more faith? Have you asked Him for His peace?
