Kids’ News – Lean on Me

This week, we learned about trusting God and leaning on one another when life feels difficult. Sometimes problems seem too big to handle on our own—but that’s when friends, family, and faith make all the difference. God never meant for us to walk through life alone.

The Bible gives us a great example in the story of Moses. When God called Moses to lead His people out of Egypt, Moses was scared. He didn’t think he could do it. But God surrounded him with helpers—his brother Aaron to speak for him, Joshua to stand beside him, and friends like Hur who held up his arms when he grew too tired to go on. Together, they showed what it means to lean on one another.

God gives us strength when we turn to Him for help, and He shows His love by sending people into our lives to support us. When we help each other, we share God’s care and kindness with the world.

That’s what the old song reminds us too—we all need somebody to lean on. So when a friend is struggling, be the one who offers strength. And when you feel weak, don’t be afraid to lean on God and the people who love you. Together, we’re stronger.

What We Learned:

  • God gives us strength when we ask for help.
  • We can count on God’s love to protect and guide us.
  • Friends and family are part of how God helps us.
  • We’re never alone—God is always with us, and we can lean on one another too.
