📖 Faith Like a Child

🌟 Scripture: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.” — Matthew 18:3

🌙 Bedtime Story: Emily’s Big Leap

Emily loved going to the playground, but there was one thing she had never done—jumping off the big swing.

Her older brother, Max, could soar high and jump off with a big laugh, landing safely every time.

“I’ll never be brave enough,” Emily sighed as she watched.

One day, Max smiled and said, “I’ll catch you, I promise.”

Emily looked at him, then at the ground. It still seemed scary!

But she trusted her brother. Taking a deep breath, she let go—and jumped!

Max caught her just like he promised, and Emily laughed. “That was fun! Let’s do it again!”

That night, as Emily snuggled into bed, she thought about how trusting Max helped her be brave. “God wants me to trust Him just like that!” she whispered.

💭 Reflection:

Jesus says we should have faith like a child—trusting Him completely, just like Emily trusted her brother. God is always there to catch us when we take a leap of faith.

🛏️ Prayer:

Dear Jesus, help me to trust You like a child trusts someone they love. I know You will always take care of me. Thank You for loving me! Amen.

🔗 Takeaway:

Faith means trusting God with all our hearts, just like a child trusts someone they love!
