They explain that they can see friends and money can not see God how can you trust in something you can’t see. The Christian explains that you can’t see air but we still breathe you can’t see your brain but you still can think. You need to learn how trust God. The people who trusted in money and friends ask how to trust God. The Christian explains that when we trust someone or something we give them everything.

The same way I don’t ever worry about falling when I sit down we need to trust God for everything knowing that he cares for us more than we will ever know.

We need to be just like that we need to trust God over toys, fun, and friends. God is the best.

There had been no rain in the land and people were starving. Elijah was a prophet of the Lord and was directed to go to Zarephath. There was a widow who was gathering sticks at the gate. Elijah asked her for some water along with bread. The widow said that she only had enough flour and oil for her son and her.
