John 3:27

John 3:27

Little Bible — for children and parents · Growth Figures · © Growth Figures. All rights reserved.

John was completely at peace. He knew that every good thing — influence, calling, fruit — comes from God alone. There is nothing to be jealous of.

Memory phrase: Everything good comes from God.

Talk about it: John said everything comes from heaven. What does that do to jealousy?

Prayer: God, help me to hold everything You have given me with open hands — and rejoice when You give more to others.
