I’m Jumping for Joy!
I’m jumping for joy because I know someone who loves me very much!
This person loves you too.
Do you know who he is?
He’s the one who made the earth and all the animals on it.
I’m jumping for joy because God loves me!
God loves you too.
And he wants to be with us not just here on earth, but forever in heaven as well!
God really, really wants to be with us.
But sin separates us from God.
Sin is anything we do that makes God unhappy.
Telling lies, fighting and stealing are examples of sins.
The punishment for our sins is that we can’t be with God.
But because God really, really wants to be with us, he sent his son, Jesus, to bring us back to him.
Jesus came to earth to take the punishment for our sins.
He died on the cross so that our sins can be forgiven.
And on the third day, Jesus became alive again!
We don’t have to be separated from God anymore!
Everybody who believes in Jesus can be with God.
We can all jump for joy because we can be with God forever!
Here’s how you can be with God forever and ever!
1. Admit that you have sinned and ask God to forgive you,
2. Believe that Jesus died on the cross to be punished instead of you, and
3. Invite Jesus into your life to help you turn away from sin
Here’s a prayer you can say to Jesus right now:
Dear Jesus, thank you for loving me. I know that I have sinned. I have done things that are wrong. I believe that you died on the cross to take the punishment for my sins. Please forgive all of my sins. Please come into my life and help me turn away from doing wrong. Thank you that because you took the punishment for my sins, I can be with you forever.

Let’s read this story to find out why this child is jumping for joy.
There’s someone who loves us very much!
God made the world and everything in it: the sun, moon, stars and the earth.
God filled the earth with plants and animals.
Gen 1:1
In the beginning God created the sky and the earth.
Gen 1:25
So God made the wild animals, the tame animals, and all the small crawling animals.
Gen 1:27
So God created human beings in his image. In the image of God he created them. He created them male and female.
God loves us very much and wants us to be with him.
John 3:16
God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only Son so that whoever believes in him may not be lost, but have eternal life.
Because all of us have sinned, we are separated from God.
Isa 59:2 (Good News Translation)
It is because of your sins that he doesn’t hear you. It is your sins that separate you from God when you try to worship him.
Rom 3:23
Everyone has sinned and fallen short of God’s glorious standard.

The payment for sin is death.

But God shows his great love for us in this way: Christ died for us while we were still sinners.

But God raised him up from the dead! After this, for many days, those who had gone with Jesus from Galilee to Jerusalem saw him.

But to all who did accept him and believe in him he gave the right to become children of God.

He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death, sadness, crying, or pain.
Rev 21:21
The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate having been made from a single pearl. And the street of the city was made of pure gold as clear as glass.
1 John 1:9
But if we confess our sins, he will forgive our sins, because we can trust God to do what is right. He will cleanse us from all the wrongs we have done.

This tract is fun and kept their attention. It was a little difficult to get it moving at the right place to make it work correctly, but with practice it worked fine.
I have used this tool with children and they love it! The larger one does take more practice. Great suggestion to practice in front of the mirror. I like the tips for presentation to come with the booklet. Recently two children individually put their trust in Jesus through this tool. It was thrilling! Later they remembered.
I used the Large Animated Tract this past week at Kids Bible Club. It really kept the kids attention. I would suggest you practice in front of a mirror before using this. I had to figure out how to effectively hold the tract and move the plastic so that the moving picture was seen correctly. The kids are excited to have the small tracts (to match) to share with their friends.
