When the lights go out, God's light never does.
It's bedtime in Ellie's little house. But when Mama clicks off the lamp, the coat on the chair looks like a bear, the floor creaks, and Ellie's heart goes thump, thump, thump.
Mama comes back with a gentle reminder: Even the dark is not dark to God. Together they look for the light: the silver moon, stars too many to count, a golden line under the door, and a blinking firefly. When Ellie closes her eyes, she discovers soft sparkles of light even there. The dark is never all the way dark, and God is always near.
Inspired by Psalm 139:12, Even the Dark Is Not Dark is a calming bedtime story that helps little ones trade fear for trust.
Inside you'll find:
- A soothing, read-aloud story about God's presence in the night
- Did You Know? A simple, kid-friendly science page explaining why we see light with our eyes closed
- For Grown-Ups: Bedtime conversation questions and a memory verse (Psalm 56:3)
- A Bedtime Prayer to say together each night
This book is perfect for nightly routines, children who are afraid of the dark, and families who want to end each day resting in God's love.
Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day. (Psalm 139:12)
