Pray
Personalize and pray Scripture over your child out loud.
God, You are our hope. We wait for You to work in this situation. You are our rock and our salvation, and we will not be moved. Help us to trust in, lean on, rely on and have confidence in You at all times. Thank You, God, for being our safe place when life gets scary. Amen. (Psalm 62:5-8)

Guide
Featured
Ask your child to spin in a circle for one minute, and then ask them to walk in a straight line. Repeat the activity, this time with your hands guiding them. Tell them that when life feels out of control, like it did after they spun around, God holds us in His hand and will guide our steps.
Read
Read Psalm 91 as a family. Take turns reading verses. Ask everyone to share which verses stand out and encourage them.
Act
Featured
Have your children act out the story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego while you read Daniel 3 out loud. (If you don’t have enough actors, substitute stuffed animals for people.) After the performance, ask the kids why the three men were not afraid. Talk about ways they can respond when they are in a scary situation.
Serve
One way God helps us through scary situations is by bringing us people to help us. What can you do as a family to encourage someone in a scary situation? Pray for wisdom and then look for an opportunity for your family to talk with and pray with others.
