Our first service of 2025 with a powerful sermon by Rev Puwayi and for the 5 minutes of youth in service an original poem on having childlike faith.✝️✨️
*Title: Childlike faith* by Courtney Kumire
My heavenly father is my strength and shield
I run to him with no fear of falling
With every step I hear him calling
And leap into his unseen arms concealed
The arms that catch me when I leap
Are steady and gentle and guiding
My heart from his I am never hiding
As he holds on to me even when I weep
He leads and I follow
Like a child who clings to a parents side
Like a lamb that follows close behind
In his shadow I confide, yesterday, today and tomorrow
My shepherd's voice is always near
I can walk through heavy dark and misty valleys
But like a child I shall not fear
Because his hand from mine I will never tear
I shall dance in streams of his light and fields of his grace
Following closely and asking curiously
In him I will always trust
For every answer is perfect and just

Bible verse References :
Matthew 18:2-4
[2]He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them.
[3]And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
[4]Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

[7]The Lord is my strength and my shield;
my heart trusts in him, and he helps me.
My heart leaps for joy,
and with my song I praise him.

[3]Be my rock of refuge,
to which I can always go;
give the command to save me,
for you are my rock and my fortress.
Isaiah 58:11
[11]The Lord will guide you always;
he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land
and will strengthen your frame.
You will be like a well-watered garden,
like a spring whose waters never fail.
Psalm 23:1,4
[1]The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
[4]Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
James 1:5-6
[5]If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.
[6]But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.
