A Peaceful Goodnight Starts Here

  1. Verse 1 (Bear) – “I once feared the shadows of night, till Jesus brought me light.”

  2. Verse 2 (Hooty) – “He gave me songs my heart could keep, and watches while I sleep.”

  3. Verse 3 (Carl) – “He walks beside me every day, and helps me learn His way.”

“So I sing like Bear, pray like Hooty, Trust like Carl when skies look moody. His love is strong and ever near — My peaceful goodnight starts right here.”

Peaceful Goodnight  

Verse 1 – Bear’s Whisper

I once feared the shadows of night,
Till Jesus brought His guiding light.
He came with love, so pure and true,
And made my heart completely new.

Verse 2 – Hooty’s Hymn

He gave me songs my soul could keep,
A melody to calm my sleep.
His Word shines bright, my heart it fills,
Like moonlight dancing on the hills.

Verse 3 – Carl’s Promise

He walks beside me every day,
Through forest trails and clouds of gray.
His truth remains, His mercy stays,
I praise Him through my woodland ways.


Choir: 🌟 Chorus – 

He walks beside me night and day,
His Word is light to guide my way.
I rest in Him, no need to fear—
His love is strong, His peace is near.

➡️ Chorus (all together)

“So I sing like Bear, pray like Hooty, Trust like Carl when skies look moody. His love is strong and ever near — My peaceful goodnight starts right here.”


Then simply repeat the song or fade out gently with a soft final chorus hummed, whispered, or spoken as a blessing.

You can repeat the entire structure once (for a 2-minute song), or softly echo just the chorus as a closing hum. For a sing-along version, each critter can “take the lead” on their verse — with expressive coloring pages showing Bear’s bedtime hug, Hooty’s moonlit perch, and Carl walking in faith with a lantern lit by scripture.

Peaceful Goodnight



Peaceful Goodnight

Verse 1:  
When I believed, when I received,  
Then Jesus came into my heart.  
Not by the good that I have done,  
But because God sent His only Son.

Verse 2:  
Now I talk, and I walk in His way,  
My heart thinks of Him every day.  
I'll grow up loving Him always,  
I'll sing with joy and give Him praise.

Verse 3:  
Let’s praise Him, praise Him evermore,  
In the morning light, at noon, at night.  
When our trust is in Him, it’s right,  
And we'll have a peaceful goodnight.
 
Chorus: 
Peaceful goodnight, the stars shine above,  
Wrapped in His mercy, His grace, and His love.  
Safe in His care, no need for fright,  
We rest in His arms through the quiet night.

Colossians 3:15 
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, 
to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.

Bear Tells Us About Carl


Bear Tells Us About Carl

🐻 "Well, let me tell ya about Carl. He's the kind of fella who walks through the woods with the confidence of someone who's never been chased by bees. Big voice, small sandwiches. I once saw him try to wrestle a sleeping bag into submission—it won.

Carl's got this face that's always smiling, like he's either planning something delightful or just remembered where he hid his snacks. He calls it ‘expressive.’ I call it ‘suspiciously cheerful.’ Oh, and his fashion sense? Think lumberjack meets confused meteorologist. Layers on layers. Guy wears more zippers than I’ve seen on a tent.

But y’know what? He’s got heart. Gave me half his granola once. Didn’t even flinch when I licked it first. A solid human, really. Weird, but solid."


Bear Tells Us About the Lumberjack

🐻 "Ah, the lumberjack. A walking contradiction wrapped in flannel. He stomps through my forest like he owns the place, swinging that axe with more drama than a raccoon defending its dumpster snacks. The birds scatter when he sneezes. Even the wind dodges his beard.

He's got arms like fallen logs and a beard that squirrels mistake for prime nesting real estate. Smells like pine, coffee, and bad decisions. But I’ll give him credit—he talks to trees before he chops them, like he’s apologizing first. That’s class, I guess?

And don’t get me started on his boots. Stomp louder than a thunderstorm on stilts. Wakes me up every time he visits, yet he claims he's ‘quiet as snow.’ Yeah… snow with attitude.

Still, he’s got a strange charm. Left me a cookie once. Oatmeal raisin. I ate it. Raisins are weird. He’s weirder. But he’s alright by bear standards."


πŸ¦‰✨ Tap tap goes Hooty’s claw on his little brass pocket watch. He clears his throat, fluffs his feathers with the dignity of a professor preparing a lecture, then steadies himself on the lower limb of the ancient oak tree.


Daily Devotion with Hooty the Owl

Scripture Focus: Exodus 15:2 (KJV)

“The Lord is my strength and song, and is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him.”


🌳 Hooty’s Reflections (with just a dash of feathered humor):

“Ahem,” Hooty begins, adjusting his monocle even though he doesn’t need it. “Young ones and furry folk of the forest, today’s verse is no ordinary woodland whisper. It's a bold declaration — that our strength is not found in acorns, muscle-bound raccoons, or even Carl's legendary ability to deadlift a log while humming a hymn.”

He flutters his wing toward the sky dramatically.

“It is the Lord who gives us strength. The Lord who fills our hearts with song when the days are dark and the squirrel choir is slightly off-key.”

“Salvation,” Hooty continues, “is not something we earn with leaf collections or pie-baking contests. It is given. And when we recognize that—well, we prepare a place for Him in our hearts. A nest, if you will. Lined with humility, woven with joy.”

Squirrel #3 whispers to Bunny: “Did Hooty just say God moves in with us like a cozy roommate?”
Hooty blinks slowly. “Yes,” he responds. “Except this roommate doesn’t leave dirty dishes in the den.”




He Dwells with Us


From the Bible

✝️ John 3:16

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

Simple meaning: God loves you deeply — so much that He gave His one and only Son, Jesus, to die for your sins. If you believe in Him, you won't face eternal separation from God (perish), but instead you’ll be given everlasting life with Him.


✝️ Ephesians 2:8–9

“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves:
it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.”

Simple meaning: You can’t earn your way into heaven with good deeds or behavior. Salvation is a gift — freely given by God’s grace — and received through faith in Jesus Christ. No one can brag about earning it, because it’s not about our efforts.


✝️ Romans 10:9

“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead,
thou shalt be saved.”

Simple meaning: Salvation comes when you say with sincerity that Jesus is Lord and truly believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead. This faith activates your rescue — your salvation.


✝️ Romans 10:13

“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

Simple meaning: Anyone — absolutely anyone — who calls out to Jesus for help, forgiveness, and salvation will be saved by Him. No one is too far gone, and everyone is welcome. Jesus came to save souls from everlasting punishment which is called hell.


πŸ’¬ In a nutshell:
You’re saved not by trying harder, but by trusting Jesus. Believe in Him, confess Him as Lord, and call on His name — and He will save you. It’s simple, sincere faith. That’s the gospel truth


πŸ“– Devotion Thoughts

He then comes into our heart and his song, his Word and is love teaches us and helps us through prayer and bible study.

Reality of Salvation — it’s not just a moment of  being saved, it’s the beginning of a relationship. We become a child of God.

When Jesus enters our heart, He doesn’t come silently. His presence brings light, His Word becomes a song in our soul, and His love gently guides us. Through prayer, He speaks to us. Through the Bible, He teaches us. It’s how He walks with us every day — shaping us, encouraging us, and sometimes gently correcting us.

It’s like going from wandering alone in the dark, to walking hand in hand with the Light Himself. 🌟

Draw a nest filled with the qualities that make a habitation for God — love, joy, patience, praise. Label each twig with a word, and give the nest a name.
