cute or dangerous
I have seen a lot of videos on facebook and youtube of very small children praising the Lord in what seemed to be deep heartfelt worship. At a glance it was cuteness, but as I looked on I seen things that seemed possibly a sign of insincerity and showmanship. In one video in particular, there was a break in the child's worship to look at the camera. It struck me that this was more for attention.
We should teach our children to worship, but we should emphasize sincerity before God. I have even seen specially made pulpits for young children in order for them to play preacher before the assembly, usually pk's. It is cute as all get out, but I don't like what I feel by it. We are all called for the ministry that God has chosen for us and we aren't picked because of our parents. I fear that for many the church has lost it focus and objective. IMO. NO offense meant.
