BUTTERCUP: Why would a chicken cross the road?
ROAD: Okay, but you ain't gonna like it. Go straight (pointing) that
way. (ominously)You're gonna have to cross the Pit of Fear,
climb the Mountain of Expectations, and make your way
through the Forest of the Unknown. (cheerily) But, I wish you
the best!
(The Road exits.)
SCRAMBLES: There's no way! That sounds too scary. We can't do it!
FAITH: Scrambles, I think maybe you worry too much. God says that
even when things are hard, we can have faith that He will lead
us and never leave us alone.
NUGGET: Does that go for chickens too?
BOOKWORM: Technically, you only exist in Faith's dream, so that's a
tricky question.
FAITH: I just know that because Jesus has made me a child of God, He
will never leave me or forsake me. (pause) Wow, how did I know
that?
BOOKWORM: Because you read it in the Bible … God's Word … and it's in
that brain of yours, even when you're dreaming. I just brought
it back to remind you.
FAITH: I'm glad you did, Bookworm. If I live by faith, I don't have to
be afraid.
BUTTERCUP: What's faith?
SCRAMBLES: She's Faith. You're Buttercup. I'm Scrambles.
FAITH: Faith means we trust God, even when things look scary.
SCRAMBLES: And God makes all the scary things go away?
FAITH: Not always. Like right now, I'm lost in the woods with a bunch
of giant chickens. (music begins to "We Live by Faith") But I
know He loves me, and that He's in control. I'm gonna trust
Him!
