Dear Dad and Mom,
Dear Dad and Mom,
We have been learning about all the things that Jesus created for the earth in Sunbeams for the last several weeks. We learned that Jesus created the earth, moon, stars, fish, animals, trees, plants, flowers, birds, insects and so much more for us to use and enjoy. I know that the earth and everything on it are a part of Heavenly Father’s plan.
After all the other things were created, Adam and Eve were created. (Genesis 1:26–28) Adam and Eve were the first two people to live on the earth. They had bodies of flesh and bones that looked like Heavenly Father’s body. After Adam and Eve received physical bodies, they lived in a beautiful place called the Garden of Eden. Adam and Eve were married for eternity by Heavenly Father. Fruits and flowers grew easily in the Garden of Eden, and all the animals were tame. Adam and Eve did not know the difference between good and bad. Adam and Eve could not have children. Adam and Eve could eat fruit from every tree except one. Adam and Eve ate the fruit from that tree. Adam and Eve had to leave the Garden of Eden. The whole world changed: Adam and Eve had to work hard to get food, weeds began to grow, and animals became wild. Adam and Eve then began to have children.
Adam and Eve were blessed with many children. They were the first parents on earth. They taught their children about Heavenly Father and Jesus. Their family grew and spread throughout the earth. Adam and Eve and their children used and enjoyed the plants and animals that had been created for the earth. Because Adam and Eve were the first parents on the earth, we are all part of their family.
And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. (Genesis 1:31) Heavenly Father and Jesus feel that all their creations are good. Most importantly, they feel that we are good, and they love each of us very much.
We sang the song “I Am A Child of God” (Children’s Songbook, p. 2) and talked about how the song is talking about me and every member of my family. We will be singing this song in our Sacrament Program later on in the year. Will you help me to practice it?
I know Heavenly Father and Jesus love each of us. They made the earth and everything on it for us to use and enjoy. Whenever I notice a flower, a star, or any other creation, I can remember that Heavenly Father and Jesus love me. I am so thankful that they love me and made this beautiful earth for us to enjoy. I am so glad that Heavenly Father sent me to my very own family. Thank you for bringing me to church today!
Love,
Your Sunbeam
