I love children so it was only natural that I joined the Children’s Ministry. This ministry lays the foundation of a child’s faith and walk with God. As children grow and face many challenges in life, the lessons learnt in church act as the seeds of faith planted by the Sower. Watching children exercise their childlike faith is a great reminder for us adults to find hope in God’s goodness and grace, even in the simplest of ways.
Singing worship songs is one of the many ways for children to remember and hold on to God’s promises easily. I remember a song I learnt in Sunday school about the “Fruit of the Spirit”. It really helped me to remember all the different “fruits” to this day!
The Bible says, “As for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it. He indeed bears fruit and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty” (Matthew 13:23). I pray that these seeds fall on good soil and that children will remain rooted in God’s word and continue to walk in his ways throughout their lives.
