Reflection of The Good Shepherd 

A child shall lead them:

I had a wonderful experience with a parent who told me about her 3rd grade daughter Evie. Evie told her mom not to worry so much about moving to their new house. Evie told her mom that God would provide. She ran to get her new Bible to find the verses in the Psalms which would help her mom. When Evie couldn't find the verses, her mom asked her to tell her some of the scripture. Evie said it began with "The Lord is my Shepherd". Her mom was able to show her Psalm 23 which they then read together. Evie is a graduate of Children Worship & Wonder.
