00:00I will be with you. You are special.
00:04Wow! Thank you!
00:05Jesus, some days I feel better, but then the hurt comes back.
00:09Why does healing take so long?
00:11Let me tell you a story, little one.
00:13There was once a gardener who found a tree with a broken branch.
00:17He didn't cut it off.
00:18Instead, he gently tied it in place, supported it, and gave it time.
00:22At first, the tree looked weak.
00:24The branch hung low, but with care, sunlight, and patience,
00:28the branch slowly began to mend.
00:30It didn't happen overnight, but one day, new leaves grew where the break had been,
00:34and that branch, once broken, became the strongest part of the tree.
00:39So, healing is slow on purpose?
00:41Yes, because real healing goes deep.
00:44It's not just about covering the wound.
00:47It's about restoring what was lost,
00:49and that kind of healing takes love, time, and grace.
00:53But what if I still feel broken?
00:55Then let me hold you while you heal.
00:57You don't have to rush.
00:58You don't have to hide your pain.
01:00Even slow healing is still healing.
01:03So, I'm not doing it wrong?
01:06Not at all.
01:06You're doing something brave, growing through the ache.
01:09And I'll be with you every step until your heart blooms again.
01:13Jesus, why does God love me?
01:16I mess up sometimes.
01:17Matilda, God loves you because you're you.
01:20He made you, like an artist makes a painting,
01:23and every part of you is special to him.
01:25Even when I do something wrong?
01:28Yes, even then.
01:30His love isn't something you earn, it's a gift.
01:32When you fall, he's there to pick you up, not to push you away.
01:36But, if he loves me, why do I still get hurt?
01:40Like when I fell and my knee went ouch.
01:44This world is imperfect, Matilda.
01:45But God's love means he's right there with you,
01:48holding your hand through the ouch.
01:52God's love doesn't take all the pain away,
01:54but it promises he's with us in every one.
01:58Let's hold his hand today.
01:59Let's hold his hand today.
