God's Love

God Loves Children

"Let the little children come to Me, for of such is the kingdom of heaven."
Matthew 19:14

Reflection

Jesus stopped everything to hug the children! He loves every child in a special way. You are deeply loved by Jesus — He sees you and cares for you!

Prayer

Jesus, thank You for loving me with such special care. Amen!

Talk about it as a family

  1. What did Jesus do when the children came?
  2. Why do you think Jesus loves children so much?
  3. How does it feel to be welcomed by Jesus?

5-minute activity

Draw a picture of Jesus with children around Him, and include the child in the drawing. Talk about Jesus stopping everything to welcome them. Read Mark 10:13-16.
