“Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.”
Before you were born, God knew you and loved you.
“Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.”
Be strong and brave; God is with you wherever you go.
“Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.”
Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.
“But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.”

Trust in the Lord with all your heart.
Where this all leads
Jesus loves children so much that when others tried to send them away, He said, let them come to Me. You are never too young or too small for Jesus. He made you, He knows your name, and He is with you all the time, even when you are scared. You can talk to Him anytime; He always listens and He always loves you.
