Our Busy Little World
Mar. 23, 2008 - Baptism
There was a baptism of three babies in church last week - always such a delight! Then we as the congregation said this lovely little excerpt from a French Reformed Baptism rite. I thought it was just wonderful, and I wanted to post it:
"Little children, for you Jesus Christ came to this earth, struggled and suffered; for your sake He crossed Gethsemane and went through the darkness of Calvary; for your sake He cried: 'It is finished,' for your sake He died and for your sake He overcame death; indeed for your sake, little children, and you - still - know nothing of it. And thus the word of the apostle is confirmed: 'We love God, for He loved us first.'"
