Object:
A white board with a dot and arrow drawn on it.
The first words that are in our Bible reading today are, "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God." When your heart is upset, does it feel like the whole world is falling apart? But this picture on my white board can help us understand more what the real truth is.
You see this dot represents our life now and the arrow lets us understand what eternity will be like. It will go on and on just like this arrow. But so often we allow our hearts to be greatly disturbed and upset and yet it is such a small amount of time that we have our problems in comparison with eternity.
