Turn It Over To God
by Ethan Morales
Good morning boys and girls, happy Sabbath. Hope you guys had a good week. Hope you guys are enjoying your Sabbath.
And let’s just jump straight into our children’s story for today. As always, we’re gonna take a look at our Bible for our children’s story. And we’re gonna be turning to Matthew chapter 19, verse, where was it, 26, where it says, Jesus looked at them intently and said, “Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God, everything is possible.”
So to illustrate that boys and girls, to illustrate that with God nothing is impossible. We have here a bottle, a little clear bottle with a balloon in it. So if I take this bottle and I try blowing it, let’s see if the balloon inflates. It theoretically shouldn’t be able to inflate, right? Okay here we go. Okay, so it’s not, okay? It’s pretty hard. I can blow as hard as I need to blow up the balloon and nothing’s going to happen. Let’s try again. Nope, nothing. So it’s almost impossible. I cannot blow the balloon up because it’s in the bottle.
However, when we hand it over to God and we let him take care of it, he will work his wonders and because of that, what was impossible for us will be possible for him. So now when we take the bottle. we can see that we were able to inflate the bottle now because we were able to hand it over to God and let him work his wonders on it.
And that’s exactly how it is for our lives, boys and girls. We’re gonna come across challenges, we’re gonna come across heartache, we’re gonna come across physical challenges that may seem impossible to get over. But when we hand it over to God, we have to have faith that he will provide. And He may not provide us with the answer that we want. He may provide us with strength in order to overcome those challenges. But nevertheless, God will help us and He will provide, making the impossible possible.
Alright, let us pray, boys and girls. Dear Heavenly Father, Lord, thank you, God, for another day of life, allowing us to come here and worship you, Lord. Right now, Lord, I ask that this message penetrate the hearts of these children and all those watching, Lord. May you help us realize that although life is difficult and things may seem impossible for us, when we hand them over to you, Lord, one way or another, you will provide a path forward that is possible through you. Lord, we ask for the forgiveness of our sins. Be with these children, their caretakers, their parents, and may they exemplify your character so that these children may grow up in you. We ask all these things in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
All right, boys and girls, happy Sabbath. and we’ll see you next time.
