"The Little Red Hen"

Today my mom dropped off a box of some of the old books I had as a child. I began to look through it and was reading some of the stories I knew I had once loved, but couldn't quite remember, when I came across one that I just had to share with you.

I'm sure everyone remembers the story of the "Little Red Hen" who's friends wouldn't help her bake the bread, which is exactly the story I thought I would be reading. However, while similar, this story was much better. Over the week I'm going to share the story with you and then maybe you can share it with your children.

Page 1
"Once upon a time, there was a Little Red Hen, who loved god with all of her heart. She had asked Jesus to be her Lord, and wanted to please Him from the start!

If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God
raised him from the dead, you shall be saved. For with the heart a person believes,
resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting n salvation.
Romans 10:9-10

Page 2
"She had three neighbors at the farm who were Christians, too. They all went to church and heard the Word, but Little Red Hen DID the things God said to do!

...but whoever keeps His word, in him the love of God has truly been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him:
1 John 2:5

Okay, that's all for today. I will tell more of the story tomorrow. It's a great version of the Little Red Hen!
