Teaching The dove brings an olive leaf

God remembers you - even in the long wait, He hasn't forgotten you, and He brings you out into something new.

  • Noah had to wait a long time in the ark, even after the rain stopped. What's the hardest part about waiting for you?
  • The dove came back with a tiny green leaf - the first sign that things were going to be okay. Has God ever given you a small sign of hope during a hard time?
  • The first thing Noah did when he came out was thank God. What's something you want to thank God for right now?
