If God places a child before you, and you are too busy to wield either a positive or negative influence...you just did the later! You communicated that the child doesn't matter and isn't important.

One changed child eventually changes a family. A changed family will influence change in its church. Enough changed churches will transform a community. Changed communities change regions. Changed regions will in time change an entire nation.

Just know this: What you will do among children is as close to the heart of God and central to his kingdom as anything we could mention.

I’m convinced that one of the most powerful forces on earth is the prayer of a child.

What’s your cause? Does it move you to tears? What is it that moves you passionately?

There is nothing to be intimidated about - it's just another long run where a few more people show up and they happen to wear numbers.
