Jesus said, Let the little children come to me.
Dont keep them away. The Kingdom of heaven
belongs to people like them.
Matthew 19:
Contents
God saw everything he had made.
And it was very good.
God made Adam and Eve.
God made me too.
It feels great to be a child of God!
GOD SAYS TO ME
You are my greatest creation.
Looking at you is better than
looking at an ocean view.
Watching you run and play is better
than watching beautiful animals
dart across the African plain.
Seeing a smile on your face is
better than seeing a sunrise.
You are my pride and joy.
Abram believed the Lord. The Lord
accepted Abram because he believed. So
his faith made him right with the Lord.
Abraham trusted God.
I can trust God too.
He will always love me.
GOD SAYS TO ME
I will be your God forever and ever.
You and your relatives will be my
special people. My blessings will be
with you and your children and
your childrens children through a
thousand generations.
We know that in all things God works for
the good of those who love him.
God took care of Joseph.
God takes care of me.
He takes care of my family too.
GOD SAYS TO ME
No matter where you go,
I am with you. Nothing can
separate you from my love.
I am your God and you are my child.
Always remember that when
you trust me with your life,
I will do great things through you.
They will know that I am the
Lord their God.
God watched over Moses.
He watched over his people.
God watches over me too.
GOD SAYS TO ME
I am your Father,
watching over you night and day.
I will love you and protect you
wherever you go,
even when you think things
are impossible.
Moses went and told the people all of the
Lords words and laws. They answered with
one voice. They said, We will do everything the
Lord has told us to do.
A long time ago, God gave his people
ten special rules to follow.
These rules are for me too.
GOD SAYS TO ME
Let my grace guide your words
and actions. You are my people,
my chosen ones.
You are my child.
I have set you apart from all
other nations. Be a shining
example wherever you go.
I, the Lord, have spoken.
God has kept all of his promises.
He keeps his promises to me too.
GOD SAYS TO ME
One day you will have faith in me.
One day you will trust me to take
care of your every need.
One day you will love me with
all your heart as I love you.
When that day comes
you will find peace.
I am the Lord your God. I will be with
you everywhere you go.
God loves his people.
He gives his people help.
I can be a helper too.
GOD SAYS TO ME
You are my chosen people!
Rejoice in your victory.
And let my name be known
among the nations
