A Love Beyond Compare
One of my Sunday School students presented this artwork to me yesterday;a picture she drew (with permissionš) while listening to the lesson!I love my class of smart, beautiful, eager, full-of-potential school-girls!Thank-you K.S.
My earnest prayer for all our Sunday School students,is that the Holy Spirit would begin to waken and nurture,as we gather weekly, (and as weeks turn into years,)not just a belief in God but a love for God.That they would get more than an education in Bible stories and facts,but that the plan and gift of salvation would begin to unfolda lifelong awe, reverence and wonder for God's love and grace!Will you join me in praying too?!They are little for such a very little time!I also pray that we, their teachers, parents and grandparentsĀ live pure and humble testimonies of genuine love for the Saviour of our soulsand the Lord of our lives!
***Matthew 5:16 - Let your light so shine before men,that they may see your good works,Ā and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
***Let's live love over and aboveWhat Duty delegatesLet's love God, wonderfully awedBy His goodness and grace
Let's live aware of eyes that care-fully watch every moveĀ Where actions shout and leave no doubtAbout who we most love
Let's live a life of joy, not strifeLet's pay most earnest heedTo what we sow, because we knowSoon fruit follows the seed
Soon innocence will climb time's fenceAnd leave childhood behindLet's live love over and aboveWith every child in mind
Before the heart grows hard, let's startTo plant, with tender careAwareness of God's wondrous love:A love beyond compare

Ephesians 5:1-2Ā Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children.Ā Ā And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us,Ā a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
