Each author was given a piece of the big picture and, they wrote it down. When you fit all the books together, you get to see the entire picture of what God is all about.

Day 1 – Read and memorize Psalm 27:4

The world’s beautiful things are all about what you see. The world’s beautiful things don’t last. Think about something you wanted the most 5 years ago. Most likely that “something” is not cool any more. God is different than the world because He is the most beautiful thing to see, and His beauty lasts forever.

Day 2

Sometimes we question God because we can’t see Him. Remember, God’s beauty is more than just seeing… it’s experiencing. What if you went outside today and put a blindfold around your eyes? You wouldn’t be able to see anything, but you could feel, smell, hear and sometimes taste everything around you. Even though you wouldn’t see all the beautiful things outside, you can still experience them. Play outside today, and while you do, thank God that you get to experience His beauty today.

BIGGER & better

God is also different from the world because His beauty is much more than just what you see. You can experience His beauty. He is kind, fair, and everything He does is good.

Day 4Have you ever made anything out of Play-doh or Legos?

When you made your creation, you were the creator. You knew exactly what it was, what it would do, and how it would work. If anyone had any questions about it, they would ask you. This experience might help you understand how great it is that God is the creator of all things. Because He is the Creator, He knows everything about what He creates and exactly why He created them. He created you! Now that you know He is your Creator and there is a reason He created you, does that help you trust Him with everything in your life?

Day 1 – Read Job 42:2The word “thwart” is a funny word. It means to prevent something from happening. You wear a rain jacket to thwart you from getting wet. You wear sunscreen to thwart being sunburned. This Bible verse tells us that God can do anything and nothing can thwart His plan. God is in control of everything that happens and nothing can stop Him from what He wants to do.

Today, think of all the people who are in control of your life and answer the following questions.
Did you know that God is in control of everything that has happened and will happen in history?
Did you know that God is in control of everything that happens, even in your life?
Do you feel safe and secure knowing that God, who is good, is in control?

Day 4

Have you ever played the board game Life? It’s a game where you roll the dice, and as you move, you experience different things about life. In the game, if you pass a certain point you might be able to buy a car. When you land on certain spaces, you pull a card that might tell you to go back 5 steps because your car broke down. You roll the dice for things such as what job you will do or how many kids you have.
Sometimes, landing on certain spots makes you pay money for going to the doctor, or you might receive money because you won a prize. It’s a fun game, and if you have it, you should play it. The dice and the cards are in control of the game. Everything that happens while you play is based on what you roll or what card you draw. Real life is NOT like the game of Life. Your life does not depend on a random card drawing or a chance dice roll. God has planned it all out for you and is in control. There is no need to worry.

Did you know?

All throughout the Bible, Satan tried to stop God’s plan to save you? One example is when God parted the Red Sea for His people. The people were running away from Pharaoh’s army who was chasing them. When they came to the Red Sea, they had no way to cross it. Those people were Jesus’ ancestors. If they died, it meant Jesus, your Savior, couldn’t be born. Nothing can stop God so He parted the Red Sea, and His people walked across on dry land to safety!

Day 5

Today, write down why you are thankful that God is in control.
