Jade Teaches Me

Dear Family of our Lord Jesus Christ,

When I preach I always tell the folks that Church is the classroom of God. Yes, we come to praise and worship, but we are to come and learn God’s Word and ways.

I am pictured here with Jade, she is 8 and attends the Baptist Church in Reserve, NM. She always has a many hugs for me! She is an angel. She takes it seriously that Church is the classroom of God. Look at her notes. This is not a one time deal with Jade, she always takes notes. Not only does she take notes, but she puts into practice what she learns. Nobody loves on people more than Jade. Jade is just 8 years old, but in many ways is more mature in Christ than many adults. How can this be? She sees Jesus in everything. She sees life through the eyes of Jesus Christ. Despite many challenges in her life, she is so very happy, and it rubs off on everybody, especially me, she makes me happy. Jade makes me cry, because I see the purity of Jesus Christ in her.

What happens to us adults as we go through life? It seems we lose that sweet innocence and purity as times goes by, or at least many do.

The hard knocks of life sometimes cut very deep.

We start to lose a main message of Jesus Christ.

From Matthew 18: 2-4

…2 And He called a child to Himself and set him before them, 3 and said, “Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.  4″Whoever then humbles himself as this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.…

I learn from Children, Children soften my heart, and bring me back into the reality of Jesus Christ.

We need to listen to our Children.

We need to love more, trust more, we need to have the faith of a Child.

Oh my! Children are heaven on earth.

Jade is an angel. I am so very blessed to have her in my life to teach me the love of Jesus Christ.

From my own Children I have learned very much.

Church is the classroom of God, even for Preachers.

Jade is another reason I fight against abortion.

God Bless you and yours, Dewey, Sharon, Family and FGGAM team
