Hand It to God!: Jonah Learns How to Talk to God

Jonah is like many children his age, sometimes he has trouble falling asleep at night in his own bed and feels lonely.

One night, his mom helps Jonah learn that he is never really alone because God is always there, just waiting for us to talk to Him.

Teaching our children how to pray using The Lord's Prayer format- adoration, confession, thanksgiving, and supplication, is important, but helping them understand that God wants to be in constant relationship with us is even more.

In this story, children learn that because God is always with us, when we are in relationship with Him all we need to do is "talk to Him" about anything at any time- this form of prayer helps us grow closer to God, naturally go to Him for comfort and guidance, and learn to include Him even more in our daily lives.
