Everyone makes mistakes, kids and grown-ups too. Maybe you said something mean, didn’t listen to your parents, or forgot to pray. But guess what? God still loves you! When we say “I’m sorry,” He forgives us right away.
So, asking God to forgive us is like washing our hearts squeaky clean. He takes away the bad stuff and fills us with peace and joy.
