When I Lived with Heavenly Father

By Pat Graham

I am a child of God, and he has sent me here, has given me an earthly home with parents kind and dear (Children’s Songbook, 2–3).

Draw the other side of each picture. Then color all the pictures and retell this true story.

  1. We lived with Heavenly Father before we were born.

  2. Heavenly Father had Jesus Christ create the world for us.

  3. Then He directed Jesus to make the earth beautiful with trees and flowers.

  4. Heavenly Father had Jesus make the sun, the moon, and the stars to give it light.

  5. He had Jesus make the fish, the birds, and the animals and put them on the earth.

  6. Then Heavenly Father placed Adam and Eve, our first ancestors, on the earth.
