Tell you children about the hope of the Gospel.Tell them about the love and control of Christ the Good Shepherd. Read Psalm 46 with them. The God of Jacob is a refuge strong and sure!

1

God is our refuge and strength,
    an ever-present help in trouble.

2 

Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
    and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,

3 

though its waters roar and foam
    and the mountains quake with their surging. Selah

4 

There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
    the holy place where the Most High dwells.

5 

God is within her, she will not fall;
    God will help her at break of day.

6 

Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall;
    he lifts his voice, the earth melts.

7 

The Lord Almighty is with us;
    the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah

Come and see the works of the Lord,
    the desolations he has brought on the earth.

9 

He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth;
    he breaks the bow and shatters the spear,
    he burns the shields[b] with fire.

10 

“Be still, and know that I am God;
    I will be exalted among the nations,
    I will be exalted in the earth.”

11 

The Lord Almighty is with us;
    the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah NIV
