Like a Child


My daughter gets excited about stuff. She gets excited about playing basketball or softball on her teams. She gets excited about High School Musical stuff. She gets excited when she gets to hang out with her family. She gets excited when she plays with her friends. She gets excited about the Cowboys and the Jayhawks.

But lately I've seen her get excited about church. Every person on her basketball team got an invite to the Egg Hunt. And a lot of them came!

But it didn't stop there. The excitement moved to the kids in our neighborhood. My daughter has become friends with a lot of kids around us. We usually have a group of them outside playing basketball or some staying to eat dinner at our house.

So she started to ask one of them to come to church with her. So the friend been showing up at our door each Sunday morning ready to come to church. Then one Sunday morning her brother was with her at the door ready to go to church too.

Now I hear that the entire family is talking about coming this weekend to church with their kids.

Wow.

Talk about lessons on evangelism from a seven year old.

Are you that excited about God?
