Teaching Turning toward God on a lonely road
When we do something wrong, we can run to God, tell Him the truth, and say sorry - and He will not leave us.
- Have you ever done something wrong and felt heavy or yucky inside afterward? What helped you feel better?
- When David felt bad, he ran toward God instead of hiding. Why do you think it helps to tell God the truth instead of hiding?
- David was sure God would not leave him, even on his worst day. How does it feel to know God stays close to you no matter what?
