Kids preach the darndest sermons

This Sunday during Communion, a child, bookended by Mom & Dad was slow getting out of the pew. Mom led the way and was almost to the Altar while this little girl was just leaving the pew and entering the aisle. Dad was behind her, bringing up the rear. That child, smiling from ear to ear, with joy in her heart, went racing up the aisle 'till she reached her Mom.

Watching, I was struck with by the thought. "That is how we should likewise approach the Altar for Holy Communion." Moving toward the aisle at warp speed, with joy in our hearts and unable to wait 'till we get there.
