My God is so big
My God is so great, so strong and so mighty
There's nothing my God cannot do
My God is so great, so strong and so mighty
There's nothing my God cannot do
The mountains are his
The rivers are his
The skies are his handy works too
My God is so great, so strong and so mighty
There's nothing my God cannot do
There's nothing my God cannot do

- The one who loves children
Have you ever been stopped from seeing
someone you really wanted to see?
A bad storm that stopped
you visiting relatives?
Could not see friends at
school because of lockdown
No tickets for a concert?
Too many people in
the crowd?

Jesus emphasized the significance of children, expressing that the kingdom of God belongs to those with childlike faith. Reflecting on the value of children in the community, especially within the church, is paramount.
