Q:
A:
God made us to be his friends. When God made the sun and the moon, the land and the sea, and the plants and animals that fill our world, he was pleased. But when he made people, he said that we were an extra-special creation. Why? Because he made us so that we’re able to know him! We can talk to him and read about him. From the beginning of the Bible to the end, there’s a clear message: God loves us, and he wants us to love him back. He wants us to trust him, enjoy him, and obey him. His plan is for us to live every minute as his friends. And someday he wants us to live with him in heaven forever!
God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was excellent in every way.
