It’s got to be the cutest Sunday of the year. It’s also one of the most inspiring.
And I don’t mean in the “That’s the future of our church” sort of way.
The future will come.
I’m simply amazed by who the babies are right now.
I can’t wait to see them all up there at the front of the church — some smiling, some crying, some sleeping.
They may be too young to have any idea why they’re up there.
But they’re not too young —
To feel that they are being held.
To feel that they are being kept warm.
And on some deep, wordless level, to know they are loved.
May all God’s children know that feeling!
I hope to see you at the 11:00 am service this Sunday in the sanctuary as we celebrate these beautiful children of God, and join their families in loving them into being.
Mister Mark
