It Will be Okay: Trusting God Through Fear and Change

Written by Lysa TerKeurst

Narrated by Hayley Cresswell

How can kids learn they don’t need to be afraid even when they face new and unfamiliar situations? It Will Be Okay will help kids discover that it will be okay because we have a God who is good, kind, and always with us.

Little Seed and Little Fox are facing changes and brand-new circumstances - and they don't like it one bit! Through this unlikely friendship, children will discover that no matter how new or fearful their circumstances, God is always with them.

Written by best-selling author Lysa TerKeurst, It Will Be Okay is a helpful resource for children, ages 4 to 8, who:

• Are struggling with anxiety or fear
• Have recently suffered the loss of a loved one
• Are facing bullying or are having a hard time coping with a move

Whether we like it or not, growing up brings change. For many children, this creates fears that are sometimes real and sometimes imagined.

Just as Little Seed and Little Fox learn to trust that the Farmer is good and kind, children will also learn to trust God. In the end, it will be okay because God is always with us.

Things are changing, and Little Seed and Little Fox are having new experiences that frighten them. It Will Be Okay is a beautiful story to teach children to trust God through trying times. The book begins with 10 scripture verses to memorize. The verses chosen are easily taken in shorter sections for younger children.Little Seed is snug in his little packet in the farmer’s shed and when Little Fox seeks shelter there from a storm, he asks Little Seed to be his friend. The story makes the Farmer the kind and loving person looking after them even when they don’t know it. This is repeated several times through the book. That personalizes the trust relationship we have with God and makes that relationship so much easier for children to understand. It is a light hearted story and I especially liked Little Fox’s adventure trying to find Little Seed and all the places searched. The illustrations by Natalia Moore are beautiful and playful. I highly recommend this book for young children, including non-readers who will delight in the characters. I also recommend it as a gift, for Sunday School classes or for pre-school classes. I received a copy of this book through the BookLook Blogger program in exchange for an honest review.
