FROM THE PASTOR
“We and Our Children”
Family devotion! One of the great privileges in church life is to be able to be in church as a family; you with your children worshipping together (maybe even with your grandchildren too!). Worship in church was not intended to be individualistic, but covenantal and corporate. Thus family worship is a Biblical principle. (cf. Neh.8:2, Acts 2:33). Families sitting together (if possible) is a good symbol of covenantal worship. But there will be something even greater: regardless of what congregation or Bible-believing denomination their path (after maturity or marriage) leads them (regrettably; you know that I love our denomination!) But even greater is the well-grounded comfort of knowing that our children are God-honouring believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, and knowing, as we leave this life and come into the Lord’s blessed presence, that our children will join us: “Lord, here we are: We and our children.” Better put, in terms of the New Testament reference to Isaiah 8:18: to know that God who promised that the “remnant shall return,” would effectually call our children and by faith graciously adopt them into family union with Christ His Son (John 6:37, cf. John 8:17) and that Jesus Himself (the “Everlasting Father” - Is.9:6) would be able to say of them too: “Behold, I and the children whom God has given to me.” (Heb.2:13, cf. John 17:9) The assurance that our children (or the children whom God has given us to teach or influence as singles or adults) would be included in that family bond in heaven would cause any believer (parent, or grandparent) to weep with joy! May our worship today truly be a strengthening of the spiritual family of God in Christ. May we worship as a congregational family – devoted to God.
