However, the people decided to stay in one place and build a tall tower to make themselves famous. They wanted to bring glory to themselves instead of to God. God saw their disobedience and confused their language, causing them to stop building and scatter across the earth. This story reminds us that we are created to glorify God, not ourselves. One day, Jesus will gather people from every language to worship Him.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I hope this message will inspire your child to grow in the love and light of Jesus.
