If Jesus Lived Inside My Heart

Lovely engaging book that helps children (and adults!) reflect on whether Jesus lives inside their heart and the practical actions that could flow from Jesus presence through us. It also helps children understand that sharing Jesus' love is visible to others. I was overjoyed sharing this book with my 4-year-old niece - """"I know I sometimes make mistakes, I'm messy and I spill. Then what does Jesus think of me? Does Jesus love me still?"""" and my niece exclaimed """"Yes!"""". The book emphasises that Jesus' presence in our hearts is not dependent on our performance - he will not let us go and encourages that he will guide our steps.

My children and I love this book. With sweet rhyming words about what it is like to have Jesus living inside our heart and the different ways He works in and through us. For example, \\r\\n""""If Jesus used my eyes, I think\\r\\nHe might just recommend\\r\\nThat when I see a child alone,\\r\\nI'd try to be her friend. """"\\r\\nWonderful illustrations. This is definitely a favourite in our home.
