The day Jesus wept
Children's sermon
Object:
small medicine bottles, one for each child
Good morning, boys and girls. We are moving deeper and deeper into the season of Lent. Each day we follow Jesus, knowing that he is one day closer to dying on the cross. How does that make you feel? (let them answer) It makes us feel sad, doesn't it? No one wanted Jesus to die, but we know from reading the Bible that it is going to happen. How do you think Jesus felt about knowing that he was going to die on the cross? (let them answer) I think you are right; he was not very happy about it, but he knew he had to do it.
