This is just like Jesus and us! Jesus wants us to follow Him. He loves us so much!
In the Bible, people wanted to follow Jesus everywhere He went. Jesus said, "Following Me is the best thing ever, but sometimes it might be hard."
But guess what? Jesus will always hold our hand! Just like our leader held the follower's hand, Jesus holds our hand when things are scary or hard.
Let's sing a song about holding Jesus' hand! I'll say it, and you say it back to me!
Jesus loves me (Kids repeat.)
Yes He does (Kids repeat.)
