A Blended Bible Story

As a bit of background, some of the recent Bible lessons we have had in Kids Klub have included stories about Gideon, Elijah, and Shadrach, Meschach, & Abednego.  So keep that in mind as you read what I will call a "Blended Bible Story," courtesy of two of my 3rd grade students who randomly shared this story yesterday evening.  It was a little more detailed than this, but this is what I remember:

Boy:  Gideon was the leader, and he and his friends were put into the fire, but they didn't burn up because God was with them.  He sent his angel.

Girl:  Yes, the angel came and hugged them and protected them...well, something like that.

Boy:  Then they threw water all over them, but GOD WAS WITH THEM [he emphasized this point]. 

At least some aspects of all three stories we studied are mixed in somewhere, and the main point seemed to resonate:  GOD WAS WITH THEM!

It's a good thing to remember when life gets mixed up and messed up:  God is with you.
