A SHORT THOUGHT

Ever feel like saying what goes without saying, but you want to say it anyway because it's so good? This is a short post, but it's been going through my brain this morning:

Christians have been blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavenlies in Christ (Ephesians 1:3). God has given believers all things that pertain to life and godliness, as well as exceedlingly great and precious promises (2 Peter 1:3-4).

Please note:
  • Nowhere in these passages (or anywhere) does it say that there is a "child's plate" of God's blessings.
  • Nowhere in all of Scripture can I find a 4th Person of the Trinity: the Junior Holy Spirit that is assigned to and indwells kids.
  • When Jesus gave an illustration of the Kingdom, He didn't hold up Billy Graham, He held up a child.
Though it's been said many times, many ways, I'll say it anyway:

Kids are not the church of the future, they are the church of the NOW.
