Children of God, / we affirm your childlikeness, your spontaneity, your wonder, your inquisitiveness, your joy in the abundant life, your humbleness, and your unashamed love of the Lord. / Each of us is a child of God, / and God knows your name, God knows when you skin your knees or your heart, God knows when you catch a butterfly or cry in the darkness. / Go, children, out where the sun shines on your faces, go out into God’s abundance and tell the story of a Christ who would claim each person as a Christian child, go and kiss the hurts of this world, go and laugh in the fields of God, / for you are Christian children, inheritors of God’s grace and love. / Amen.
