As I've written, we are studying the character trait of Trust in Konos.  We have been talking about our fears and today talked a bit about what we should do when we are worried, anxious or afraid.  Today we re-memorized the verse "Casting all your cares upon Him for he cares for you."  The kids drew pictures of their fears.  It touched my heart to see and hear the things that they truly fear the most deep inside, some completely unrealistic and others very real, some I was aware of and others that I was very surprised by.  Then after they had made them we "cast" our fears into the recycling bin outside and gave those fears to God.  They had such fun doing the casting.  Boy2 started going through the house finding papers to crumple up so he could do it too.  Then, spontaneously, they started dancing and shouting around the house praising God that they don't have to worry about those fears anymore because they had given them to Him.  It was definitely one of those moments that I will treasure.

Blessings!
