Reflections of Love
A group of church
members from the Denhigh United Presbyterian Church in Virginia held two VBS
programs in the west port area of Haiti (in 2019).
Besides regular bible
lessons, food and games they provide a craft time. The photographer takes
photos and prints out a copy for each child. During craft time they make
a frame to take home.
When it came time for
the children to claim their photos, no one came forward. What the leaders
discovered is that they had never seen their reflections in a mirror because
such luxury was too costly.
The children may not
have seen themselves physically, but Jesus always has. He loves them and desires
that they fellowship with Him spiritually.
“And they were bringing children to Him so
that He might touch them;
but the disciples rebuked them. But when Jesus saw this,
He was indignant and said to them, Permit the
children to come to Me;
do not hinder them; for the kingdom of God belongs
to such as these.
Truly I say to you,
whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like
a child will not enter it at
all.” (Mark 10:13-16)
As we minister to the
little ones may our message of Christ always be reflections of His love for
them.
Yes, Jesus loves the
little children … ALL the children of the world! (cw)
