God Sent Jesus Because He Loves Us

📖 Bible Verse:
“For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
— John 3:16

🕊️ Story / Reflection
Have you ever given someone a gift because you really loved them?
That’s exactly what God did at Christmas. 

God saw how much the world needed help, hope, and love. So He gave the best gift ever—Jesus. 

Jesus came as a baby, grew up, taught us about God, healed people, and showed us how to love.

 He came so we could be close to God again.

Christmas isn’t just about gifts, lights, or fun; it’s about God’s great love for you and for everyone.

💡 Lesson:
God loves me so much that He sent Jesus just for me.

🙏 Prayer:
Dear God,
Thank You for loving me so much.
Thank You for sending Jesus to show me Your love and bring me close to You.
Help me to love others the way You love me.
Amen.

🎨 Activity (Ages 3–6):

🕯️ Challenge (Ages 10–12):
This week, show God’s love by being kind, forgiving, or helpful to someone—even when it’s not easy.

🌸 Closing Thought:
Jesus is God’s love wrapped in a gift. Every Christmas—and every day—we remember how deeply we are loved.
