A New Day

Last night at the place I work, we had a bunch of kids from a local children’s home over to celebrate easter. After the egg hunt, coloring of easter eggs, and kids movie, the band got up to play a few praise songs. One of the girls behind me who was probaby 8 or 9, got up, went to the front of the room by the stage, and started dancing with one of the little girls. Then, one-by-one, some of the other little kids got up to dance and lean on the stage, gazing at the band and clapping their hands. Let me tell you, it was a sight to see. All the rest of the college students and the older kids stayed in their seats, sitting, until the band asked us to stand. I think the kids loosened us up a bit as the songs went on, but for the most part, the kids were expressing their uninhibited worship to God through singing and dancing.

Oh that we would come to him with faith like a child, dancing before him out of our love and joy and peacefulness…..
