JESUS And The Children

Hello! and happy good weekend to all of us, GUYS.  Our "food for the soul" this Saturday:

THE GOOD NEWS (13 August 2016)

"Then little children were brought to JESUS that HE might lay HIS hands on them with a prayer.  But the disciples scolded those who brought them.  JESUS then said, 'Let them be!  Do not stop the children from coming to me, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to people such as these.'  So JESUS laid HIS hands on them and went HIS way." - Matthew 19:13-15 

JESUS And The Children

 

(JESUS, despite having no children of HIS own, opens to everyone the richness of HIS heart.  HE marvels at the mystery of life that begins full of hope, and discovers the likeness of the FATHER in every unknown child.  How could JESUS, who asks us to have hope, forget that the children are also our hope?

We must be like children in order to enter the kingdom of GOD.  We must forget our wisdom and self-sufficiency, and the bitterness of past experience in order to receive GOD's gifts and words in wonder and simplicity.)
