Imagine in the heavenlies how important this moment was. On Sunday we had parents come and dedicate their children to God. Each parent knelt and made a vow to God on behalf of their children. What an amazing moment as parents made promises to love Jesus, love each other, and many other declarations to their children. Not only is this important, but it has redemptive value! These kids now have their parents asking Jesus to do with their lives what he deems best. Now that is getting off to a great start as a child.
We had12 families make these commitments. I was so blessed by being part of this. Oh God, please may these kids experience the impact of their parent's vows on Sunday!
