Catechism for Young Children · Question 11 of 145
Can you see God?
A.No; I cannot see God, but he always sees me.
What does this answer mean?
We cannot see God, but he always sees us. Children like this answer because it turns the question around. God is invisible to us, and we are never invisible to him. It is a good answer to say together in a dark bedroom or on a hard day.
What can we ask our children?
- Can you see God?
- Can God see you?
- How does it help to know God always sees you?
Can I print this question?
Yes. Every printable here is free for home, church and co-op use. Press Print on any of these pages for a clean sheet.
