And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people,
and God himself will be with them and be their God.
-Revelation 21:3

God is not only _______ us; He’s __________ us. God is not only _____ our side; He’s
_____ our side.
The whole of Scripture reveals a God whose ____________ ______________________ is
to ___________ ____________ humanity.
Of all God’s gifts to his people, the most __________________________ is the __________
of His __________________________.
CHILDREN'S MINISTRYCOLD AND FLU SEASON
