Sermon: This Thing Called LOVE
John 2:11, Psalm 7: 1-5
Children were asked certain questions about love and
gave some interesting answers. One question was: What
do most people do on a date?
Ten-year-old Mike said, “On the first date they just
tell each other lies, which usually gets them interested
enough to go for a second date.
Another question was: Is it better to be single or married?
Nine-year-old Tracy said, “Its better for girls to be
single, but not for boys. Boys need someone to look after
them.”.
One other question was: When is it okay to kiss someone?
George, ten-year-old said, “You should never kiss a girl
unless you have enough money to buy her a ring and DVD player,
because she’ll want a DVD on the wedding.”
Love is kind of an interesting concept, for children and
for adults, I’ve discovered. There’s that kind of love,
love between partners that seems as though true soul mates
have found each other and cherish each other.
Maybe its not accident that Jesus chose this wedding
with all the complicated and profound implications
it carries about love and relationship. Maybe its not
accident that Jesus chose this moment to show us something
about and even more complicated relationship, and even more
profound sense of love….Hear more….
John 2: 1-11 is not about this wedding, but it’s about
a miracle that can happen in the lives of people who
love and believe in Jesus…Hear more…
The important thing is to be drawn to God, everyday a
little closer, to believe a little more, to love a little more…
Hear more…
Come to church this Sunday.
See you in church,
Pastor Romy
