Restorative Soul

Day 38 Doxology:  Lately, there seems to be a "Children's" theme goin' around the church.  So here's mine.  This is Holy Week.  And…today I was able to serve the children in the daycare Holy Communion.  They loved every minute of it and did a great job explaining the Holy Trinity (kidding).  They got the gist -Jesus loves them.

Since Easter was in the sir, Ryder felt compelled to elaborate after the amazing liturgy from Holy Communion…that's just the way we roll.

My Doxology came between Ryder's laughs, and when I realized God has given us our plot in our community.  We are a church of children.  We felt compelled to start a daycare, we felt compelled to enhance our children's ministry, and we enjoy with great enthusiasm our children being a part of our worship services.  They lead us in the most amazing prayers of simplicity -"Thank you God for Captain America and Bat Man!"  They seem to not matter that one represents DC Comics and the other Marvel.  If we want to be clear, it is the children that teach us.

That simple prayer merging comic competitors should be at the basis of all our prayers…maybe not DC Comics and Marvel, but for those that share differences.  And, in the end, we say to ourself, "he restores our soul."  My doxology is for all our Summit children.
