Scripture: Matthew 19:14 Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” (NIV)
Nugget: Don’t underestimate the importance of children in God’s kingdom. Sometimes, I reflect back on when I was younger & how I viewed the world; children see things differently. When they say that God is going to do something, they believe it! They usually aren’t cynical or pessimistic like adults. They have a pure heart.
If we could do this sometimes! Thank God for children; they remind us to try to keep things simple & to trust.
Quote: “Children are a wonderful gift . . . They have an extraordinary capacity to see into the heart of things and to expose sham and humbug for what they are.” –Desmond Tutu
