We’re familiar with the story of the people who brought their kids to the Lord. The disciples considered that a waste of Jesus’ precious time, and they tried to shoo the kids and their parents away. Jesus had a different idea. He welcomed the kids, sending a message to His disciples, the parents, the kids…and us…that children are important people who deserve to be introduced to Jesus. This week, we are welcoming children from all over the area to our church for VBS. Please welcome these children to our church and pray for them. They may be messy, they may be loud, and they may even break something while they are here. So be it. That’s a small price to pay to introduce these small but precious and important people to Jesus.
