«And you are complete in Him.» Colossians 2:10
Even before Jesus came to the world, Satan was already making plans for people to believe that Jesus was not God. He wanted people to see Him as a preacher who liked to show-off, or as a crazy man, or just as a good man who taught good things.
But Jesus was much more than a good man while He was here on earth. Jesus came humble and poor, like a little child, but He was God.
As God, He came in the form of a man, to grow, to preach, to teach the people to be kind, to be polite, to show everyone that this world had very bad things, but that everyone could be in Heaven forever one day. And Jesus came to die, to pay for the disobedience of Adam, Eve and everyone who came after them until us.
Jesus was God.
You, your mom and your dad can only be good people and go to Heaven because of Jesus and His death on the cross.
Let’s practice!
Draw the cross of Jesus and pray: “Thank you, Jesus, for being my God, for dying on the cross and for preparing Heaven for me and everyone who wants to go there. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
