While going through some things this morning I came across a bookmark given to me about 10 years ago by one of my students when I worked with middle school girls (6th graders) at the church I attended at that time.
It says: "God is bigger than the Boogie Man!"
My teaching technique was pretty unconventional. We often used this phrase in our discussions. It was pretty common for me to (literally) toss the lesson plan over my shoulder and talk instead about their lives using this to encourage them to care about and pray for each other. Things we youth leaders were supposed to teach the kids.
Guess I needed the reminder today.
