Blessed by Jesus

We are told in the gospels, that some parents brought their children to Jesus. In Mark 10:16 we’re told what happened next. “Jesus took them in His arms and began blessing them, laying His hands upon them.”

What a great picture. You can just see Jesus scooping the children up in His arms, one at a time, and blessing them. As one writer says, “This event tells us a great deal about Jesus. It tells us that He was the kind of person who cared for children. He could not have been a stern and gloomy and joyless man.”

But what kind of picture do our children get of Jesus from us? Are we accurately teaching them about Christ?

At Believers Fellowship we want to help parents teach their children about Jesus. On July 28 we start a weeklong Vacation Bible School. Feel free to join us. You can call us at 656-2000 and get all the information or go online to believers-fellowship.org.
