Good Night God
THE BEGINNING Genesis 1-3
In the beginning, before anything was made, God was already here. He had so much love to give that He decided to make people with whom He could share His love.
4
As a home, He made the world and everything in it—from mice to mountains and from peanuts to palm trees, and at last, people.
5
The first people were Adam and Eve. They enjoyed life with God in His garden. He gave them everything they needed, and also some rules to follow. Sadly, they broke the rules, and God had to send them away. But God had a plan to bring them back to Him again.
6
Good night Adam and Eve, and good night God. 7
NOAH’S ARK Genesis 6-8
Many years after Adam and Eve left God’s garden, God saw that all the people on earth were evil. In fact, there was only one good man left, and his name was Noah. God would send a flood to wash away all the evil from the world.
8
So, God told Noah to build a big boat to keep him and his family and the animals safe.
9
God let it rain and rain and rain until the earth was covered with water. When the water finally dried up, God put a rainbow in the sky. ‘‘This rainbow is My promise never to send a flood like this again," God said.
10
Good night Noah and Noah’s family and the animals, and good night God. 11
A PROMISE TO ABRAHAM Genesis 15-21
A long time after Noah and the ark, God spoke to another man, named Abraham. He had everything he could wish for, except a child. He wanted a child more than anything. God had good plans for Abraham and promised him a son.
12
It seemed impossible because Abraham and his wife Sarah were too old to have children. 13
