Jeremiah 17:7
Trusting Roots: Growing Strong in God’s Promises
Verse Of The Day:
"But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him." (Jeremiah 17:7)
Imagine a tree with deep, strong roots that reach down into the earth, keeping it steady through every season. That’s what we’re like when we put our trust in God! Jeremiah 17:7 teaches us that those who trust in the Lord are blessed, like a tree planted by water, drawing strength and life from God.
When we put our confidence in God, we don’t have to worry about things going wrong. Just like a tree stays strong and healthy because its roots are deep, we grow strong when our hearts are rooted in God’s promises. Trusting in God means believing that He has a good plan for us, no matter what.
With God’s help, we can face life’s storms, dry seasons, and even hard days. When we trust Him, He fills us with peace, joy, and strength. Just like a tree’s roots keep it steady, our trust in God helps us stand strong and grow closer to Him every day.
Roots of Trust Craft:
Create a “Roots of Trust” tree at home! Draw or cut out a tree with big roots, and on each root, write down something you trust God with, like “My family,” “My future,” or “My worries.” Decorate the tree with leaves or fruit symbols to show how God’s blessings grow from our trust in Him. Hang it up as a reminder that your trust in God keeps you strong, no matter what comes your way. This craft helps kids understand that trusting in God is like having strong roots that keep them steady.
Time For A Prayer:
Dear God, thank You for being our source of strength and peace. Help us to trust in You with all our hearts, knowing that You have good plans for us. Teach us to put our confidence in Your promises, just like a tree with strong roots. May we grow in faith and joy, knowing You are always with us. Amen.
Keep growing strong, Faith Force Trusting Roots! Until our next Divine Dispatch, remember that when you put your trust in God, He makes you strong and steady. Let’s keep our roots deep in God’s love and enjoy the blessings He has for us!
