John 4:51

John 4:51

Little Bible — for children and parents · Growth Figures · © Growth Figures. All rights reserved.

The confirmation came on the road — as he was walking in faith. The good news met him in his obedience. That is often how God works.

Memory phrase: Confirmation came while he was walking in faith.

Talk about it: The servants met the man while he was still on his way home — still walking by faith. How does that encourage you when you are waiting for an answer?

Prayer: God, help me to keep walking in faith — and trust that the confirmation will come.
