Hey, bible readers. I'm Ms. Emily and this is the Bible recap for kids. It's time for our second seven day roundup. First, let's zoom out. We spent the last seven days in the middle of Job's tragedy. For six of those days, God didn't speak to Job, even though Job was in the deepest places of darkness and despair. While Job had strong faith throughout his trials, he also struggled and questioned God. God is so kind that in spite of Job's questioning, God comes near and speaks to him. Now let's review our words to remember. A prophecy is a message. God speaks to people through a person. We call the people who speak the messages. A redeemer pays a price to get something or someone back. An offering is a gift of value, often money offered as a gift to God. God is provident because he protects and cares for us now and he prepares for the future. And finally, let's find an application. When you read the Bible, you learn about who God is. In the past seven days, we've learned that he's our redeemer, our creator, our commander and our keeper. We've also learned that he's so personal with us that we get to call him our friend. Job remembered feeling God's presence as his friend when everything was going well. Job needed God to remind him of his power as God when everything went badly. How have you seen God's presence in your life as your friend? And how have you seen his power as God? When you go through hard times in your life, remember that God's responsibility is to know and protect and provide. Your responsibility is to trust your friend. Here's where the boy is. Sam.
