Jesus grew up and told everyone how much God loves us but God’s big plan was that one day Jesus would die to help us.

Jesus died on the Cross so that when we say we are sorry he can help our hearts to change.

First when we say we are sorry God takes away our dirty hearts and washes us inside

See how clean our hearts look now

God helps

If we ask Jesus to be our friend he will come and live inside our hearts so that we can be his friends forever.
