Finding God’s Peace Through Reading


For children facing tough times, books are a source of peace and reassurance. Stories help children understand their emotions, provide them with relatable experiences, and remind them that even in the hardest moments, they are not alone.

The stories we find in Scripture are a testament to this truth. Psalm 23:4 says, "Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me." When children read about Bible heroes like David, Esther, or Joseph, they see that challenges can be overcome with faith, courage, and perseverance. These stories offer not only hope but also a framework for trusting God’s plan during life’s trials.

At Pillows In Peace, we believe that the simple act of reading can be transformational. That’s why our kits include not only a cozy pillow but also books that encourage children to explore God’s love and faithfulness. By creating a safe, comfortable space for reading, children can find a moment of calm in an otherwise turbulent world.

Let’s continue to encourage children to read—whether it’s a Bible story that reassures them of God’s love or a fictional tale that sparks their imagination. Every story has the potential to be a source of healing and a reminder of the peace God offers to all who seek Him.
