Jesus as a Friend

Introduction

In today's lesson, we will learn about Jesus as a Friend. Just like we have friends who care for us and are always there for us, Jesus is also a friend who loves us and wants to be close to us.

Who is Jesus?

Jesus is like a friend who listens to us when we talk to him in prayer. He is always there to help us when we are sad or facing challenges, just like a good friend would. For example, when you are scared before a test, you can talk to Jesus and ask for courage.

How to be a Friend of Jesus

Being a friend of Jesus means following his teachings and being kind to others. Just like we share toys and help our friends, we can also show love and kindness to others as Jesus taught us. For instance, when you see someone feeling lonely, you can be a friend to them by playing together.
