I can trust what God says
As Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt, he told God’s people to trust God. And God parted the sea to make a dry path for them to walk on! Moses and God’s people trusted that God knew what was best for them, and we can trust that God knows what’s best for us, too!

September 2023 OVERVIEW
Memory Verse:
"God...knows everything." (1 John 3:20)
Key Question:
Who knows what's best for you?
Bottom Line:
God knows what's best for me.
An adult makes about 35,000 choices every day, but adults are not the only ones with choices to make. Children have their fair share of choices too—about 3,500 of them. Every. Single. Day. Should I eat this snack or that snack? Should I play with this toy or that toy? Should I do this and share or do that and keep it all for myself?
Knowing that our preschooler’s 3,500 daily choices will one day turn into 35,000 daily choices is why we want to teach preschoolers that, when they have a choice between This or That, they can trust that God knows what’s best for them.
