Jesus the ultimate security blanket

Today is Hug a Teddy Bear Day. Most of us had them growing up, some eqivelant of the 'blankie', 'bunny' or tattered 'bear, bear' (my granddaughter's). They brought us a sense of security and comfort when needed.

We all have those moments in our lives when we need to feel secure. We need to know that someone is with us when we feel all alone; that someone is there to comfort us when we are frightened or anxious about facing something new. We want someone there to comfort us when we are feeling down.

The good news is that we have someone like that in our lives 24-7. Remind your children, and yourself, that Jesus is there whenever we need him, wherever we are, in whatever situation we find ourselves. Matthew 28:20 is so reassuring to us all. "Be sure of this, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."

He is the best security blanket ever.
