Another year of Vacation Bible School has come and gone. It was a fun filled and very busy week for everyone involved. There were about one hundred and fifty children and one hundred volunteers helping out. It was hard work for many and yet very rewarding because those involved were doing it for the Lord Jesus and hoping to draw the children there to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
I have enjoyed volunteering these past two years because I learn things and Biblical truths were reinforced in me to help me grow in my walk with Christ. I love being with other believers in Jesus Christ and getting to know new people. It is really hard for me to get to know new people since I am really super quiet and a super introvert, but I really do like being with people and trying to get to know them. Don't mind me I have been going through this awkward phase for the past forty-two years.
There were twenty-one children that asked Jesus Christ to be their Lord and Savior! What a great blessing that is! Praise the Lord! The angels in Heaven rejoiced and threw a big party for each one. God is so very good and He is still working in people's hearts and lives today.
I can't wait until next year to volunteer for the Vacation Bible School again. I feel really blessed to have been a part of such an important event even though my role wasn't that big, but every one's role in the Body of Christ is important as long as we are doing it for the Glory of God.
I would encourage you to lift up in prayer all of those children who have received Jesus as their Lord and Savior and that they would grow in faith. I would also ask that you would pray for those who didn't, but hopefully soon will.
Lord,
Thank You for opportunities to serve You with my brothers and sisters in Christ.
I pray that You would open up other opportunities for me to serve.
I lift up the twenty-one children that made a profession of faith in Jesus.
Lead them and empower them to grow in their walk with You O Lord.
In Jesus Name I pray,
Amen.
