David’s Daily Devotion for June 7

June 7, 2022 - Good Morning! It’s Tuesday, June 7.

We survived our first day of Vacation Bible School! Actually, it was a good day - lots of kids, lots of excitement, and God blessed. To Him be the glory.

One of the differences between today’s VBS and the VBS in the old days is crafts.  Now, boys and girls work on crafts together, crafts that are connected to the week’s theme. But I remember when boys, led by the men of the church, would do woodworking projects.  The girls would make some sort of froufrou decorative object - we boys paid no attention. Our attention was on the serious business of building shoeshine kits and paper towel dispensers and other important items made out of wood. Manly work. Serious business indeed!

The theme scripture for this year's VBS is Ephesians 2:10 - "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, prepared ahead of time for us to do". We are His creation and He made us for a purpose. God's work. Serious business indeed!

Meet you back here tomorrow,
Bro. David
