Make Room for Jesus

📖 Bible Verse:
“Look! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends.” — Revelation 3:20 

🕊️ Story / Reflection:

Imagine hearing a gentle knock on your door — knock, knock!
You open it and see your best friend smiling, ready to spend time with you. That’s what Jesus does every day! He stands at the door of our hearts, waiting for us to invite Him in.

When we make room for Jesus by praying, reading our Bible, singing songs to Him, or simply talking to Him, we allow His love, peace, and joy to fill our hearts.
Sometimes our hearts can be too full of other things, games, worries, or distractions, that we forget to spend time with Him. But when we open the door, Jesus comes in and makes our hearts His beautiful home.

💡 Lesson:
I will make room for Jesus every day because He loves to be close to me.

🙏 Prayer:
Dear Jesus,
Thank You for always knocking on the door of my heart.
Help me to open the door every day and spend time with You.
I want You to live in my heart forever.
Amen.

🎨 Activity (Ages 3–6):
Draw a big door and colour it. Inside the door, draw Jesus smiling and holding a heart.

✏️ Reflection (Ages 7–9):
Write or say one way you can make room for Jesus today — maybe by praying or helping someone.

🕯️ Challenge (Ages 10–12):
Take 5 minutes today to be quiet before God. Tell Jesus, “You are welcome in my heart,” and write how you feel afterwards.

🌸 Closing Thought:
Jesus is knocking every day. When you open the door of your heart to Him, your life becomes full of His love, peace, and friendship.
