How to climb Mt. Everest! |
It’s time for Vacation Bible School
here at Community Lutheran Church. That
means every day this week our church is filled with kids running, jumping, and
singing to God. This year one of my responsibilities
is teaching Bible Stories to preschoolers, and I have really been impressed
with the kids. Sometimes I kind of
wonder how much the kids are really taking away, but it’s amazing to see these
kids becoming passionate for God. Yes,
they want to be silly, and they certainly want to have fun, but they also want
to hear about God’s Love. These
preschoolers are also proving that they have the ability to share God’s love
with others. They’ve shown such genuine
love to me that it’s been impossible for me not to turn around and share that
with others!
I know I can get caught up thinking my
studies in theology somehow put me on a different level, but that’s not the
case. Yes, my seminary degree has been pretty
useful over the years, but God Spirit moves inside of preschoolers as much as
it moves inside of me. We are all called,
and we all have gifts! This week I hope
we can appreciate the fruits of the Spirit in everyone we meet!
Blessings!
