In the near future our kids choir will be singing "WHO ARE WE" in the morning services. This is exciting BECAUSE (if everything goes as planned) our youth band will be playing for the choir. Next Sunday morning the choir will be rehearsing with the band!
This morning AGAIN I was touch by the kids choir. There was one girl (2nd grader), as we were practicing our song she was not just singing but she was truly telling Jesus how much she loves Him and worshipping Him. Her both hands were up towards the heaven. She was saying to God "here I am, pick me up, I want to be close to you". Hm...that reminds me of the story of Mary and Martha. Jesus said to Mary, ONLY ONE THING MATTERS. What was that one thing? Shouldn't we all try to do the one thing!? The one thing that matters is to spend time with Jesus and to be close to him. What better way to be close to our Heavenly Father than lifting our hand up and He sure will come and pick you up just as would any good father. Try it.
To listen to the song "Who Are We" just go to www.stanwichrocks.org and click on the choir page and then click on the box on top right that says "check this out".
If you need to be closer to God, it is up to you, you know how hard it is to hold a child on your lap if they don't want to be held, but when they run to you with their arms up reaching towards you, THEN you know that you are about to get the best hug ever. Jesus wants to give you a hug today. As you listen to this song, show God how much you love Him and how much you need Him in your life. I do need Him.
