"Jesus said, 'Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.'" — Matthew 19:14

When the disciples tried to send the children away, Jesus stopped them and made His priorities clear: children matter to God. He welcomed them, blessed them, and used their faith as an example for all believers.

This passage reminds us of the vital importance of children's ministry in the life of the church. Children are not merely the future of the church—they are a valuable part of the church today. Every Bible story taught, every prayer shared, every song sung, and every act of kindness shown plants seeds of faith in these precious hearts and points them to their Savior Jesus Christ.

We are called, as followers of Christ, to create ministry opportunities where children can come to know Jesus, experience His love, and grow in their faith. Whether through teaching, volunteering, encouraging families, or praying for our children and children around us, we all have a role in helping the next generation draw closer to Christ.

As our own Perry Presbyterian Church and many other churches throughout our community host Vacation Bible School programs this summer, let us thank God for the children in our churches and our community, and ask Him to strengthen all who teach, lead, and care for these children. Lord, bless the children of our churches and community and help us faithfully guide the next generation to know and follow You.

This verse in Psalms 105 encourages us as believers to remember God's wondrous deeds and mighty acts throughout history, HIs covenant promises, and His mercy that never ends.

As Christians, remembrance is also an act of faith. Psalm 105:5 calls us to remember not only the sacrifices of others, but also the faithfulness of God through every generation. In times of peace and in seasons of hardship, the Lord remains steadfast.

On Memorial Day, we pause to remember. We remember the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our nation, and we honor the sacrifice made for the freedoms we enjoy today.

Today, may we give thanks for those who served with courage, pray for families carrying loss, and reflect on the grace and mercy of Christ that sustains us all.

“And after that He went out, and noticed a tax-gatherer named Levi, sitting in the tax office, and He said to him, "Follow Me." And he left everything behind, and rose and began to follow Him. — Luke 5:27-28

Jesus didn’t choose Levi because he was perfect. He was a tax collector who was looked down on and despised by society. Yet Jesus called him to become the disciple, Matthew. With two simple words — “Follow Me” — Jesus offered Levi a life-changing opportunity.

The same is true for us today. Just like Levi, we are broken sinners in need of Jesus Christ, Lord and Savior. God’s call to us is not based on our good deeds or perfection, but on His divine grace. As in John 15:16, Jesus tells us, "You did not choose me, but I chose you." No matter where we’ve been or what others may think of us, Jesus still calls us to walk with Him.

We do not have to leave our jobs to follow Jesus as Levi did, but we must change our lives and our priorities in order to follow Him. The questions we must ask ourselves each day: Who am I following today? Am I following Jesus when I say or do something? Do l desire Jesus and love Him? Do I know I need Him? Do I have a desire for others to know Him?

Today, remember this: Jesus knows you and He loves you. He saves us from our sins and calls us to follow Him each and every day.
