Bold for Christ

Normally, Aaron goes into the children's ministry during our service, but he's been wanting to stay in to be with us the past couple of weeks. We've let him, and he seems to really enjoy listening to all the music (sits in on many of our praise team practices, so he knows the songs before we sing them on Sunday), and he likes to hear the sermons. In the month of September, we've been in a series about being "bold for Christ". This morning, while we were praying, Aaron whispered something in my ear. He said, "Dad, I want to be bold. Cause God doesn't just want 10%. He wants all of me. I wanna be bold for Christ." The 10% line was a reference to a comment our pastor had just made, about how God doesn't want just 10% of our lives. He wants all of it. The congregation finished praying, and it was time for the praise team to head back to the stage. I took Aaron up on stage with me, and he sat on the piano bench next to me while I played "Softly and Tenderly". I kept sneaking peeks at him, and his eyes were closed the entire time, swaying his head to the music. It was the perfect Sunday morning.
