EKIDZ Church this morning was incredible! We kicked off our brand-new sermon series, “Be Different,” by learning about Daniel and his friends. Even when they were pressured to follow the king’s commands, they chose to obey God instead.
During our self-reflection time, we talked about how God has called us to be leaders, not copycats. We learned that doing what’s right means reading our Bibles, praying every day, and listening for God’s voice.
To help us understand, we used the example of a candle. A candle cannot stay lit without oxygen—it will eventually be smothered and go out. In the same way, without Jesus, we are like an empty vessel with no true light, power, protection, or guidance. But when we invite God into our lives, He fills us with His presence, giving us the strength, energy, and light to shine brightly for Him.
What an amazing morning growing together in God’s Word! We can’t wait to see what He has in store for the rest of this series. 💙✨
