I won’t run wild I won’t waste my time I won’t chase silly things That blur my mind I’ll share my bread I’ll speak with grace I’ll keep my hands soft And my eyes on His face

Bible verse · Little lesson
A verse to hide in your heart
“Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.”
Little lesson for little hearts
Jesus is coming back, and He told us to be ready. Being ready isn't about being scared — it's about walking close to Him today, with our little lamps lit by His Spirit. When we love Him each day, we'll be glad to see Him on that day.
