Children: "Why we are Important, Need Attention and Radical Approach from Your old Ways of Treating Us!.."
 |
"We are very significant in the Bible. We are created with dignity, like all humanity, we are created in God’s image. .." “for you created my inmost being, you knit me together in my mothers womb…I am fearfully and wonderfully made…( Psalms 139: 13-16). When you abort us or pass laws legalizing our abortion, you annoy God. When you discriminate us, ignore us, oppress us and exploit us, you hurt God. Now is the time to say sorry to God and embrace us with love. |
| "We have a song in our hearts that is divine. We can sing and dance because we are the future of the church. Most of the people who become Christians do so at the age of 4-14. We must be led to accept Christ as children. This is also God’s command to mankind about us." “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not turn from it”. (Proverbs 22:6). |
 |
 |
"Although I cannot speak loudly and in your language at my tender age, deep inside my heart, I know that God is our protector and friend. He expects Christians today to protect and love us. Every one has an important role to play in caring for us. Work with us has mainly been left to NGO’s whose staff is not well trained in ‘Ministry to children”. |
continued...
We know that even Academic Institutions have an important role in caring for us through equipping Child Ministry Professionals to care and serve us holistically, with compassion and the right knowledge."
 |
God uses us in many ways. God’s salvation to mankind came through a child like me.
“Unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given. And the government will be on his shoulders….” (Isaiah 9: 6). |
continued...
"God’s expectation is that we will develop as Jesus did- “in wisdom, in stature, and in favor with God and men” ( Luke 2:52). My expectation to you Dad and Mom is that you will nurture me in a complete way so that I may grow like Jesus did."
"We are ordained to praise God. Praise from such infants and children like us silences the foes and the enemy "
( Psalms 8:2). |
 |
 |
"My daily prayer to you God my creator, is from (Psalms 141; 1-3), O Lord, I call to you, come quickly to me. Hear my voice when I call you. May my prayer be set before you like incense, may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice. I lack food, decent shelter, clothing and appropriate education.
Lord, cause the people who work with us and our government, to extent a loving hand of mercy to us vulnerable children. Make them, o Lord, to be accountable to us, to be persons of integrity, and to know that when they serve us, they are serving you…Amen!"
