The Wonder Of It All
Matthew 18 1-4 The Message
“At about the same time, the disciples came to Jesus asking, “Who gets the highest rank in God’s kingdom?” For an answer Jesus called over a child, whom he stood in the middle of the room, and said, “I’m telling you, once and for all, that unless you return to square one and start over like children, you’re not even going to get a look at the kingdom, let alone get in. Whoever becomes simple and elemental again, like this child, will rank high in God’s kingdom. What’s more, when you receive the childlike on my account, it’s the same as receiving me.”
Watch Child faces
Aglow in Candlelight
Awestruck by Christmas
Amazed by the Wonder of it all
Know this
As you smile over them
The Father Smiles over you
As you hope for their delight
The Father Hopes for yours
As you sing that lullaby
To comfort Child heart
To banish Child fears
So The Father sings His Song over you
Lean in
Feel the Depth of His Love for you
Be Amazed by the Wonder of it all
Be Awestruck by Christmas
Let your Child Heart Glow
In the Light of Father’s Love
