God Is the Great Recycler

Faithful Anyway


2He lifted me out of the pit of destruction, out of the sticky mud. He stood me on a rock. He made my feet steady. 3He put a new song in my mouth. It was a song of praise to our God. Many people will see this and worship him. Then they will trust the Lord.

Sometimes, things just don’t go the way we planned. We thought we’d get to go to the park, but it rains. We think we’ll get to go see a new movie, but the movie is sold out. Sometimes, bigger things happen-we might have to move away from our friends or say goodbye to someone we love. Life can be hard, but we serve a God who is always in control. No matter what happens in our world or in our own lives, God is still in control. We might not understand what is happening to us, but we can always have confidence in God’s power. The whole universe belongs to God!

Life can be really tough sometimes. We experience hard situations and difficult emotions.Thankfully, we have a Savior who walks with us every step of the way. This month, we’ll learn about broken relationships and how they can be repaired. We’ll learn how to deal with the death of a loved one and see that we can still have hope in the middle of our sadness. We’ll learn that it’s okay to feel sad or anxious, and we have a Savior who loves and helps us through all of it. We’ll also learn that even though we might experience difficult circumstances, we serve a powerful God who will always be in control.
