This is how I want to spend Christmas for the rest of my life. Every 25th of December, I want to be found giving my best for a bunch of kids. Planning and setting up a service just so that the presence of God can fall in the place for every single one of them to get touched. It is simply magnificient seeing new kids step into the room, looking pretty lost and hesitant, not sure whether they belong there. But the games, the praise and worship.. All of that warms them up. And then the Word of God. That's when every word is so annointed, every word carries the weight of God and hits their hearts. That yes, it might be words, but they are the exact words they need to hear. And when it's time for the altar call.. I love it. Everything is all right for the Holy Spirit to move in the place. Even the hardest of them all will break because that's how real and powerful God is.
You can't fake it with kids. It's all real to them.
Merry Christmas! (:
