I Am God’s Child

🕊️ Story / Reflection
God is our loving Father, and He calls us His children. That means we belong to Him.
Just like a good parent cares for their child, God cares for you every day.
God knows your name, your thoughts, and your feelings. He listens when you talk to Him, and He is always near.
Being God’s child means you are never alone and never forgotten.
You are loved, chosen, and part of God’s family.
