A Great Adventure

Think how much the Father loves us. He loves us so much that he lets us be called his children, as we truly are.

1 John 3:1a (CEV)

“We’re going on a trip in our favorite rocket ship!” sings one cartoon. Lots of different TV shows have kids going on an adventure. Trips can be scary, fun, interesting, exciting—all rolled into one!

Moving can also feel like an adventure. How do you feel when you have to move? Do you get sad? Scared? Curious? Excited? You might feel all those things! Sometimes it’s not easy when things change, like your house, who you play with, and what the weather is like.

But think about this: God is already at your new place, and he is getting things ready for you. He is your heavenly Father, and like any good daddy he will take care of you. He has provided a home for you, friends to meet, and new things to see and do. Now how do you feel about it? It’s easier to be excited about the adventure when you know God is walking with you through it.

God calls you his child and loves you so much. He watches over you like a good father. So, you don’t need to worry about your next adventure. He is with you!
