Welcome to the Kidz Korner On this page you will find things of interest for your little angels. Please take the time to read to them from the Bible daily. Our future is in their hands. I have included some of my favorite children's stories below. May you enjoy your time spent with them in God's presence!
	God's Creations In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. On earth, He made the seas and mountains. He created animals of different shapes and colors. He also created men and women and He gave them everything they need to live happily. Then, God saw that the people whom He created were fighting with one another, and forgetting their God who made them. So He chose a righteous man with a strong faith to guide the people onto the right path and bring them close to God. This man was called Abraham. Abraham was seventy-five years old when God chose him. God spoke to Abraham and commanded him to make a journey. “Abraham, You shall go to a land to which I will guide you. This land shall belong to your family and you shall be the father of a great nation. God also promised Abraham a son. God kept his promise and gave Abraham and his wife Sarah a son whom they named Isaac. Abraham loved his son more than anything in the world.
Daniel and The LIONS Daniel knew who God was and prayed to Him. He would not pray to anyone else - not even the king, so the king's helpers were angry. They threw Daniel into a lion's den. They thought the lions would eat Daniel up. Since Daniel was faithful, God sent an angel to keep Daniel safe. The lions could not even open their mouths. They could not hurt Daniel. To read more about Daniel and the lion's den, go to the book of Daniel chapter 6 in your bible.
	David and GOLIATH David was a shepherd boy who spent most of his time in the fields with the lambs and the sheep. He always wondered about the God who created this lovely world. Prophet Samuel had sent for him and anointed his head with oil. This was the sign that God had chosen David to be the future king of Israel. David had returned to the hills near Bethlehem to take care of his father’s sheep At that time, the Israelites were still at war with their old enemies, the Philistines. One day when David was in the hills, one of the king’s servants came to fetch him. The servant asked David to bring his harp and go to the king. King Saul who was ill and unhappy wanted to hear David play the harp. David played the harp for the sad king who was comforted by the music. The king regained his strength and went to his army. The armies of the Israelites and the Philistines were on opposite sides of the hill, and both armies were ready for battle. Each day the Philistines sent their champion, Goliath, who was fully armed and gigantic in size, to shout across the valley “Choose a man, and if he were able to fight with me and kill me, then we will be your servants. But if I kill him, then you shall serve us.” The Israelites trembled as they heard the voice of Goliath. Nobody was brave or strong enough to fight with this giant Philistine. One day, David came to the Israelites’ camp to see his brothers. He heard the words of Goliath. He was amazed that the Israelites were all afraid. “I will go and fight with this Philistine” David said. When the king knew about David’s intention, he said “You are not able to fight for you are a youth, and the Philistine is a man of war”. David replied “The lord who saved me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear when I kept my father’s sheep, will deliver me.” The king said “Go, then, and the Lord shall be with you.” Unarmed, except for his staff, his shepherd’s sling and a few stones, David went to confront the giant. Goliath was angry when he saw that the Israelites sent a shepherd boy to meet him. “Am I a dog that you come to me with sticks and stones?” Goliath shouted. “Today the Lord will deliver you into my hands and all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.” David replied. David ran fearlessly towards the Philistine giant, he slipped one of the stones into his sling, and skillfully flung it so that it hit Goliath in the forehead, who fell to the ground. When the Philistine army saw that their champion is dead, they fled the battle. The Israelites won the battle and David whom God had chosen to be the future king of Israel was the hero of the people of Israel
Noha's Ark God told Noah to build a huge boat called an ark because He was going to send a flood. Noah's sons helped their father build the ark. The ark was not in the water at first, but soon it began to rain and rain until the whole earth was covered in water. God told Noah to put two of every kind of animal on the ark. When the flood came, Noah and his family and two of every animal were safe in the boat. To read more about Noah's Ark, go to Genesis 6 in your bible.
	The Birth Of Jesus The virgin Mary lived in the city of Nazareth. One day when she was alone, Angel Gabriel appeared to her and told her, “Don’t be afraid. God has chosen you. You shall have a son, and you shall call Him Jesus. He shall be great and shall be called the Son of God”. Mary was very happy with the news given to her by the angel. Joseph the carpenter and his wife Mary went on a journey. When they arrived at Bethlehem in the evening, Joseph wanted to find a comfortable place for his wife Mary who needed to rest and who was awaiting the birth of her promised Son. The only place they found was a stable with camels, donkeys and sheep. It was a quite night. Soon after midnight, Jesus was born under the clear sky of Bethlehem. After His birth, the angels were singing in the sky, which was lit by the light of heaven. Nearby there was a group of shepherds. An angel appeared to them and announced to them the birth of Jesus Christ. The angel said, “Do not be afraid. I bring you great news. Today was born a Savior, who is Christ the Lord”, and the angel showed the shepherds where the newborn baby was. The shepherds rushed to the stable to see the newborn baby. After seeing Him, the shepherds left the stable. They praised God and told everybody what they saw on this first Christmas morning. Joseph and Mary went to Jerusalem to present baby Jesus to God in the Temple. As they were there, they were approached by an old man, who was known to be always watching and praying for the coming of the Messiah. The old man whose name was Simeon, took baby Jesus in his arms. As he looked at the baby’s face he knew at once that his prayers were answered. He said, “Oh Lord, my eyes have seen your salvation”.
Jesus & The Last Supper Jesus Christ performed many wonderful miracles. He healed the sick and raised the dead as he went about different towns and villages. Many people believed in Him and followed Him. For them, Jesus was a father and a teacher whom they admired and loved. His followers called themselves His disciples because they were learning from Him. Of these disciples, Jesus chose twelve men who were know as His apostles. They were to go preach and teach the people the teachings of Jesus. The rulers and priests of Jerusalem became very jealous of Jesus as many people were following Him. They wanted to get rid of Jesus. Jesus tried to warn His apostles of this danger as they went to Jerusalem for the Passover Feast. The apostles did not believe that their beloved teacher could be harmed. John and Peter, two of the apostles, asked Jesus, “Teacher, where shall we have the Passover supper ?”. Jesus answered, “Go to the city and you will see a man with a jar of water. Follow him home. We will have the Passover supper in the upper large room of that house”. That Thursday evening, Jesus and His apostles met for the Passover supper. Jesus noticed that one of His apostles, Judas, sat silently as if he had something to hide. Judas did indeed have a big secret. He had collected money from the rulers of Jerusalem in order to lead them to Jesus. At the door of the room, there was a bowl of water with a towel. Jesus took the bowl of water with the towel and washed His apostles’ feet and said to them, “If I, your Lord, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash each other’s feet”. During the supper, Jesus said, “truly I say to you that one of you will betray Me to My enemies”, and He turned to Judas as He said this. Judas understood that Jesus knew that he was the betrayer, so he got up and ran out of the room.
	Easter Sunday Early on Sunday morning, Mary Magdalen, along with other women, went to visit the tomb of Jesus. To their surprise, the soldiers who were supposed to be guarding the tomb were not there. They were even more surprised and afraid because the tomb was opened and the body of Jesus disappeared. Mary Magdalen went inside the cave while she was crying. She saw two angels inside. “Why are you crying?” the angels asked her. “Because they have taken away my Lord” she answered. And then another voice behind her said to her, “Mary, why do you cry?”. She turned around and realized that it was Jesus standing behind her. She could not believe her eyes. She went and told the apostles, “I have seen the Lord!”. The apostles could not believe it either that Jesus was alive. The great news was too good to be true. As the apostles were gathered together speaking about all of this, Jesus appeared among them and said “Peace be unto you”. As soon as they saw Him, the apostles knew that it was Jesus Himself, their beloved teacher. This was the happiest moment in their life. At this point, many people in Jerusalem were talking about seeing Jesus. When the news reached the governor, he asked the soldiers what happened. The soldiers said that as they were guarding the tomb of Jesus, an angel came down from heaven and opened the tomb and Jesus rose up from His grave. Forty days after Easter Sunday, Jesus and His apostles went to the Mount of Olives. He told them, “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and the Holy Spirit. And remember that I am always with you”. As Jesus said this, He raised His hand and blessed His apostles. Then He went up to His father in the heavens. The apostles were not sad when Jesus left them, because they remembered His words, “I am always with you”, and they knew that it was true.
