"When God Made You"
by Matthew Paul Turner
"'Cause when God made you
and the world oohed and aahed,
in Heaven they called you
an image of God."
Through playful poetry, Matthew Paul Turner creatively showcases the unique qualities of a child. He clearly expresses the message that children are deeply loved by God and specifically created for a purpose in His divine plan.
Especially during difficult times as these, our kids need to be validated and affirmed. They need to be told they were in God’s thoughts from the beginning of time, uniquely designed by Him, and that “God’s you” is to be hopeful and kind. The vivid illustrations by David Catrow really bring this message to life.
"A mover, a shaker,
a lover of nature.
A builder of bridges,
you, the peacemaker."
This sweet book is truly a treasure for our younger children!
