JESUS LOVES ME!
Mark 10 14-16
“Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so. Little ones to Him belong, they are weak but He is strong. Yes Jesus loves me!”
I am so blessed to have grown up at Pleasant Hill all of my life. As a toddler I was in the beginner’s class of Mrs. Lena McIntyre (age 3 or 4) there I learned that Miss Lena loved me
and that Jesus loved me too.
In older classes I learned about sin and our need of a savior, and that God had sent His son
Jesus to die for our sins. I asked Jesus to come into my heart several years before children my
age were allowed to be baptized. I was baptized by Travis Lee Darby during summer revival (about the age of 10?) I think sometimes we make salvation way to complicated when it comes to children.
The older I get, and the more time I spend reading my Bible and in prayer, the simpler my
understanding becomes.
