Planting seeds

“Mommy, Can we come to this Church?” the little girl asked as they left Church that night. My job was to hold the door for the many people coming and going that Summer evening. We were in the midst of Vacation Bible School week and the front door to our little Church was constantly in motion. Excited little grade schoolers would run up the sidewalk. Parents trying their best to keep up. The children just couldn’t wait to get inside and join their little classmates in yet another night of fun.

Smiling little faces were plentiful – and a welcome sight after yet another day in the Corporate world! I later heard that for some of those wonderful little children Vacation Bible School was the highlight of their week! No wonder they were in such a hurry to get into the Church building. Let the fun begin!

Somewhere in the Bible there is a tale of a mustard seed. Last week, in those quick and fun-filled two hours each evening some very tiny seeds were planted. Seeds which will hopefully flourish and grow a little each day.

Vacation Bible School is but a fond memory now – at least at our little Church. And the seeds were sown into the fresh and open little minds of those beautiful little angels God so kindly blessed us with. Lessons reminding them to help and love one another. To Love God, and each other.
