Expliqué aux enfants

Imagine you're feeling very lonely, like a tree all by itself in a big field. God is like a kind gardener who plants you near other trees to make a forest. He also helps people who are stuck, like when you help a friend free their shoelace from a crack in the sidewalk. But if someone doesn't want to listen, they might end up in a place without much water.
