One of 101 titles in the St. Joseph Picture Book Series, this book by popular author Father Lovasik, S.V.D., provides children with simple explanations of what a day looks like when you know Jesus. Imagine spending the whole day with Jesus, as if He were right beside you! From the moment you wake up, you can talk to Him in prayer and tell Him all about your day ahead. Jesus would listen carefully and be excited to join you, just like a best friend. You could ask Him to help you be kind, patient, and loving with everyone you meet.
As you go through your day, you could picture Jesus walking beside you. When you're at school, Jesus would encourage you to try your best, to be helpful to others, and to remember that you're never alone. He'd remind you to make good choices and to show kindness, even when things get tough.
At lunch, you could thank Jesus for your food and think about how He always shared with others. If you feel worried or sad, you can silently talk to Jesus, knowing He cares about every little thing in your heart.
In the evening, you could tell Jesus all about your day - the fun parts, the hard parts, and everything in between. He'd listen with love and understanding, happy that you shared it all with Him.
Spending the day with Jesus means remembering He's always there, ready to listen, guide, and love. When we see each day as an opportunity to be close to Jesus, we grow in love, peace, and joy.
