Trusting God completely, even when afraid, is the central theme of It, illustrated by a father's promise to catch his son. The story unfolds with a father calling his son to jump from a breaking tree limb, assuring him he would be caught, which the son did, demonstrating complete trust. This moment of surrender and faith is presented as a powerful analogy for trusting God in difficult times. The sermon concludes by connecting this personal experience to the biblical principle of trusting in God when afraid, as stated in Psalm 56.

A man was going through a very deep and discouraging time. His confidence in God was severely tested. One day he went for a walk with his small son in the orchard. The boy climbed an old apple tree. Some of the limbs began to break beneath the boy's weight. The man called out to the boy, Jump, buddy. I'll catch you. The boy shouted, Shall I let go of everything, Daddy? Yes, came the reply. The boy jumped, and the father caught him. Later the man said, That incident spoke to my heart. At that moment I did trust the Lord completely, and it wasn't long before he wonderfully supplied my need. The writer of Psalm fifty-six said, When I am afraid, I will trust in thee. This has been a moment to remember from the Bible.
