Kids SS – Q2: What is God?

Question 2:What is God? God is the creator of everyone and everything.

The memory verse is Psalm 86:8-10, 15

8 Among the gods there is none like you, Lord;
    no deeds can compare with yours.
9 All the nations you have made
    will come and worship before you, Lord;
    they will bring glory to your name.
10 For you are great and do marvelous deeds;
    you alone are God….15 But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God,
    slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.

This question is one of the most basic, but seems to be a question that our society is ill-equipped to answer. For some God is the big vending machine in the sky. Others think he’s like Santa, watching you and judging you. Many in our society say God is just a crutch, a figment of our collective imaginations. 

But the Bible says that God is the creator of everything, and that we can have a relationship with Him because of His Son. God is great and worthy of our praise and adoration. God can be trusted because he stays true to His word. 

The virtue this week is Awe. Perhaps this week you can talk about how awesome God is with your kids. He is so incredible, there is no way to comprehend him. And yet, Jesus came to Earth to show us God. That’s awesome too! Spend some time standing in awe of our amazing God.
