Elijah Prayed

Name Date

Read the Story

James says be patient. A farmer waits for rain. He waits for his plants to grow. God’s people wait for Jesus to come back.

If you are sad, pray. If you are happy, sing to God. Pray for each other. Elijah was a man like us. He prayed, and it did not rain. He prayed again, and the sky gave rain.

Memory Verse

“He prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.”
