«The Lord your God, the mighty one, is in the midst of you, he will save; he will delight in you with joy; he will be silent for his love, he will rejoice in you with singing.» Zephaniah 3:17
Do you desire to bring joy to the heart of God? I do! Ask your mom and dad if they do too.
If you read all the stories in the Bible, you will realize there is a very kind and loving God always running after His disobedient and stubborn children.
His children disobey Him and God insists: “My child, you need to repent! I want you to be happy!”
So, His children say: “Okay, God, we are very sorry!”
But a little while later, they forget God and go back to sinning and doing what displeases God. Then God goes after them and does that many times!
There will come a time when those who truly love God will obey Him forever and will no longer desire to do evil. And they will be with Jesus forever, in Heaven! And that will make God’s heart full of joy!
Let’s practice!
Tell your mom: “I choose to please God!” Pray together as a family.
