Teaching A father tells his children to remember

When something hard happens, the very best thing we can do is turn and talk to God about it.

  • When something hard happens in your day - you get hurt, or a toy breaks, or a friend is mean - who is the first person you usually tell?
  • The whole town came together to talk to God. Why do you think it helps to pray with other people instead of all alone?
  • Joel told the people to remember the hard year and tell their kids about it. Can you think of a hard time when God helped your family?
