“You can’t lead anyone else any further than you have gone yourself.”
(E.C. McKenzie from 1800 Quotable Quotes)

As children’s ministers it is our job to lead kids into the presence of God and into knowing God but this can only happen as we develop ourselves and spend the time ourselves in his presence.

Pursue everything God has for you.  If you had a bucket of chocolate bars and chips at the front of your classroom and you told the kids to come and help themselves, would the kids in your class hold themselves back?  Not in my class.  They would run to the front and joyfully dig in.

Rare would be the child who would take one jelly bean or one potato chip and be satisfied with only that.  Yet sometimes people hold themselves back from pursuing the presence of God.  We are often satisfied with crumbs when we could have a feast.
