This week, the kids learned that “God Knows Every Hurt” through the story of Job. Job suffered a lot of hurt and loss. Even through the pain and struggles, Job trusted God. God reminded Job that He was all-powerful and always with him. God knows everything about us, even the hurts and struggles we experience. Kids learned that we don’t always understand why bad things happen, but we can trust that God is good. When your kids share struggles this week, teach them to S.E.A.P.—Stop Everything And Pray. Help them know that God knows their hurt and is always there for them.

Last week, students learned that “God Knows Everyone.” They learned about the woman in Mark 5:21-34. In the middle of a large crowd, she touched Jesus’ clothes to be healed. Despite the huge crowd, Jesus knew who touched Him and why. He knew her because He knows everyone. God knows what we need most—forgiveness through Jesus and a relationship with Him. He offers this relationship to every single person everywhere! Talk to your kids this week about friends and family who might need to know that God knows them and loves them. Take time to pray for the people in their lives to know the truth about the love of God.

Take 1 day this week to highlight these 2 things and spend 3 minutes talking about them:
God had a plan for Joseph’s life, and God has a plan for your life too. Ask your kids about what they want to be when they grow up. Talk to your kids about how no matter what they end up doing when they grow up, God will guide them and has a good plan for them.
