Pastor’s Pen

Last Sunday, a few of the teenagers and younger children were playing around the church. I heard them running down the hallways and finding places in the church to hide. I heard another counting as the many scurried off to find their hiding place. The popular game of Hide and Seek was in full swing. I thought I might join, but thought better of it when I observed the speed in which the others whisked by me in the hallway. I know what some are thinking, “Children shouldn’t play in the church”. To me, that is like saying, “Children shouldn’t have fun at church!” Instead, let us receive a lesson from the youth of our congregation. I am not suggesting we all start playing hide and seek, but maybe we should hide more in the church and seek more in the church. What if the altar was our base as it should be. What if we truly began to seek God and hide His Words and find comfort in the house of God. That it might just change the world! Your It!
