When things are the way we like them to be , we want them to stay that way . We'd like to always live in the same house and go to the same school and have the same friends . Sometimes things stay the same for a few years . More often things change , no matter how much we'd like them to stay the same.
But there's one thing that always stay the same--that never changes--that'sJesus.Jesus is the same today as he was when he lived on the earth or anywhere. Jesus is the same from the beginning of time until time ends .You can always count on Jesus , because he always stays the same.Praise the Lord!
Invite Jesus in
WE all know that it is polite to knock on a door before we go into someone's house .We don't just run into someone's house-we knock first and wait for someone to answer the door and invite us in.
Jesus does the same thing .H doesn't force himself on us .He doesn't barge into our lives. Instead , he stands and waits for us to invite him in . When we open the door of our lives and let him in . When we open the door of our lives and let him in , he will stay with us forever and ever .
Can you hear Jesus knocking?Open the door and let him in.
Revelation 5:110-14 -
We have so many reasons to praise the Lord . You can use the words of this song to praise God for all he has done for you .
BEETHOVEN'S NEW NINTH
Alleluia , alleluia,
Jesus is the Lord of love;
Looking down on all his creatures,
Sending his blessings from above.
How we love you , precious Jesus,
We just want to praise your name;
Alleluia , alleluia;.
Thank you for the day you came
What a wonderful places
What is the highest number you have ever count to ?
one hundred?
Ten thousand?
No matter how high you can count , you cannot count high enough to count all the people that will someday be in heaven . No one can count that high . Just think the endless crowd of believers praising God . What a great day that will be . Heaven will be a wonderful place full of love and praises to God ! Hallelujah!Praise God!

Genesis
Genesis is about the beginning of everything- the beginning of the earth, the sky, the animals and people. It also tells about the beginning of humans' sin and about God's love for people even though they have done wrong things.
God created all things good.
God takes care of everything he made.
We sin, but God promises to forgive us.
God wants us to believe in him and worship him.
I Didn't Do It
Have you ever been punished for something that you didn't even do? Well, that is what happened to Benjamin. Everybody thought that he has taken a silver cup. He knew that he didn't do it, but the silver cup was found in his bag.
Sometimes, life doesn't seem very fair, does it? You get yelled at when your sister is the one who did something wrong. Your teacher blames you for something the boy next to you did. When this happens, try thinking of Benjamin. He got blamed for something he did not do. But, God still took care of him. He would take care of you too! Praise the Lord.
Forgive Each Other
Jacob and Esau were brothers- twin brothers. And like most brothers, they fought. When they were teenagers, they had sucha bad fight that Jacob went away to live with his uncle. Many years passed. Finally, Jacob went back home to see his brother Esau. Jacob was afraid that Esau would still be mad about him, but he wasn't.
No matter how much you fight with your sister or brother, remember that God loves both of you and wants you to love each other and forgive each other.
No matter how much you fight with your sister or brother, remember that God loves both of you and wants you to love each other and forgive each other.
God Keeps Promises
God makes a promise to Abraham. He promised to give Abraham and his wife, Sarah, a baby boy, but Abraham had to wait for a very, very long time for God to keep that promise. Abraham was hundred years old when his son, Isaac, was born!
People sometimes make promises and forget about them very quickly. But in the big book, the bible, there are many stories about God making a promise and not forgetting that promise for hundred years or four hundred years or even two thousand years. God promises in the bible for us today, becuase God keeps his promises.
