📖 God Makes All Things New

🌟 Scripture: “He who was seated on the throne said, ‘I am making everything new!’ Then he said, ‘Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.’” — Revelation 21:5

🌙 Bedtime Story: The Little Garden That Grew

Liam loved to play outside, but there was one part of his backyard he didn’t like—a dry, dusty patch of dirt where nothing grew.

One day, his grandma gave him a tiny packet of seeds.

“Let’s plant these,” she said with a smile.

Liam wrinkled his nose. “But the ground is too dry!”

His grandma knelt down, dug a small hole, and placed a seed inside. “Sometimes, things look empty at first, but just wait.”

Every day, Liam watered the dirt, but nothing happened. He almost gave up.

Then one morning, he ran outside and gasped—tiny green leaves were poking through the soil!

Over the next few weeks, his garden grew and grew, filling the once-empty patch with beautiful flowers!

“That’s just like God,” his grandma said. “He takes what seems broken and makes it new!”

Liam smiled, knowing that God can make anything new—even the places that feel dry or forgotten.

💭 Reflection:

Just like Liam’s garden, God takes what is old, broken, or empty and makes it new! He can bring new joy, new hope, and new beginnings into our lives.

🛏️ Prayer:

Dear God, thank You for making all things new. Help me to trust You when I can’t see what You’re doing. I know You have good things planned for me. Amen.

🔗 Takeaway:

God can bring new life to any situation—just like a garden growing in dry ground!
