DEVOTION: Moses answered the people, "Don't be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today." The Story, p. 53
Can you imagine you just fled Egypt overnight, you are on your way out of town with a couple hundred thousand other people, there is chaos all around, you are just trying to keep your kids close to you and move ahead, and then you look back and there are hundreds of chariots with guys in them who want to catch you, capture you, and if they don't beat you and your kids to death, they will make your slavery worse than it was before, and then Moses gets up in front of you all and says, what he says above?
I would have a lot of trouble not being deathly afraid of what is going to happen to my children and to me. Logic would simply say that you are doomed. Common sense would tell you to start walking back and give yourself up. But then you see Moses taking that famous staff that you've heard so much about, and raising it up over the water. Then you see the waters begin to pile up on either side of that staff. Then you see dry ground appear in the middle and Moses says, "Let's go!" You aren't out of the woods yet. You still have to cross, but from what you've just seen you are pretty sure everything is going to be alright. You get this calm sense that even if you don't make it to the other side, everything is going to be alright, because the Lord is with you and He will save you.
Whatever you are going through in your life right now, know that the Lord is with you. He is on your side! He will part the waters for you. He will care for you in good times and in bad, and you WILL MAKE IT TO THE OTHER SIDE! HEAVEN!
Let us pray: Lord God, help me to trust in you, even when things seem impossible and completely hopeless. In you there is complete hope! Amen.

HELP FOR PARENTS TO GUIDE THEIR CHILDREN THROUGH THE STORY
A big part of The Story experience is that the whole family grows together in it as each person in the family reads it, you will all literally be on the same page. yet, it may be hard to get discussion going or to help you get started together. Are you looking for a way to connect with your kids as they and you read The Story together? There's help!
If you click the link below you will find parent pages for all age groups that you can use to connect with your kids at least once a week. Whenever your "together" time is, make it productive. It is a .pdf file of parent pages that goes from lesson one all the way through 31. Check it out and tell me what you think. I think they are excellent!!
