THE ADVENTURES OF WORKING WITH CHILDREN My passion is leading children to Jesus, discipling them, and teaching others to do the same. I love to prayerfully plan and work over curriculum with the help of the Holy Spirit to enable children to know Him.

In Ten Years
Today evaluate what you are doing with the children. As you watch "The Next Generation" seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xw3AHgKxso ask yourself; "What difference have I made in the lives of the children I touch?" "What are the things I have done?" "What are the things I have been prompted by the Lord to do and not yet done?" In Matthew 19:14 Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." Several years ago the Lord spoke to me saying, 'No matter the age of the child and no matter the size of your class bring them to me.'
To me this meant first of all every child, even the very young little infant and the precious child yet in the womb. This meant the same even if you have only one child before you. How many times have we just let a child play or watch a video because you did not have more children in your class, thinking how can I teach only one or this does not warrant going to all the effort! But what did Eli do with Samuel?
So my BIG question to you is: How are you bringing them to Jesus NOW that will effect their life in 10 years?
