God is love

CHAPTER 3
HOW GOD SHOWS LOVE EVERY DAY

A new command I give you...

God shows His love to us every single day, in ways big and small. You don't have to look far to see it - all around you, God's love is shining!

Sometimes God shows His love by sending sunshine to warm our skin and flowers to make the world colorful and bright. When you hear birds singing in the morning, that's a little love song from God, just for you.

God's love is also seen in the people He puts in our lives. When a friend shares a toy, or a family member gives a hug, that is God's love working through them. Even when someone helps you when you feel sad or scared, that is God's love reaching out to comfort you.

The Bible tells us stories that show how God's love never gives up. Like the story of the lost sheep, where the shepherd leaves 99 sheep to find the one that wandered away. That's how much God cares about each one of us!

Every day, God gives us gifts like clean water, tasty food, and a place to rest - these are all signs of His love. And best of all, God loves us so much, He sent Jesus to be our friend and helper forever.

So remember, when you see a smile, feel a warm hug, or look at a beautiful rainbow after the rain, that is God showing His love to you. God's love is always with you, every day, bigger and stronger than anything you know!
