Is your mind overflowing with what-if questions? 
 
Preteen boys have a lot spinning through their curious minds each day. But too often their what-ifs are rooted in fear and anxiety as they try to find their way in a world that doesn’t always make sense. 
 
This easy-to-read devotional offers daily encouragement and truth to combat that worry. Each of the one hundred devotions, plus interactive Activity Days, rallies boys to trust the God who has all the answers. They’ll explore questions such as:   

• What if I don’t feel strong enough?
• What if I’m scared?
• What if my team loses?
• What if God changes His mind about me? 

 
Life comes with a lot of questions, but You Can Trust offers boys tangible reminders that their God can be trusted with all their what-ifs.
