SUNDAY’S SERMON “A 2 Corinthians 5:16-21 WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES THE
RESURRECTION MAKE? As I reflect on the
difference the resurrection makes; I think of God’s awesome love for me. He
sent his only son Jesus, to live on earth, to die and to rise again for me. I
accept him as my Lord and Savior and live my life for Him. Especially through the past year, as
throughout my life, this relationship with Jesus – his love and care- have
helped me through a tough time. This life experience makes the resurrection
even more meaningful in my life. Over the next several
weeks during Children’s Time the children will be given a Jesus’ Victory
Block Set that will focus on Jesus’ Life – A Blessing for Me, My Life – A
Blessing for Others, Jesus’ Death on Calvary – His Love for Me and
Celebrating Jesus’ Victory. We will
understand how Jesus is our best friend and how we need to share and show his
love and care with others as we live our lives for Him. I encourage you to use these block sets as
a discussion tool with your children to help them continue to understand why
the resurrection is so important in our lives. In John 15:13-14 Jesus says, “Greater
love has no one than this that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I
command.” Jesus is our best friend and
loves us very much. This makes the resurrection so important in our lives. — |
