Christmas Countdown - Dec 4



God is All-Powerful
Today we are going to think about how powerful God is.  In the Bible, God says: "Behold, I am the Lord . . . is there anything too hard for Me?"  (Jer 32:26)  Nothing is too hard for God.  He can do anything!  He is stronger than anybody, and He always does what is right.  We can be very brave and sure because our God is so strong!  Even though we are small, and not very strong, and sometimes we are afraid, we can count on God to take care of us because He is so powerful.
  
God says:  "Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know."  (Jer 33:3)  When I am afraid, or need help, or don't know what to do, I call out to God and ask Him to help me.  You can call out to God too.  Sometimes He will answer you right away.  He might give you a new idea about how to do something.  He might have your Mom or Dad help you.  He might give you the courage to try again at something that is hard for you to do.

Sometimes God doesn't seem to answer right away;  then we can keep praying, and watch for how He will answer us.  He promises that He hears us and will answer . . . sometimes it is right away, and sometime it takes some time, but God always keeps His promises.
