Jesus said, “Let
the little children come unto me.” He
said this not only when little ones came to Jesus of their own accord but even
when the little ones, the infants in arms, were brought to Jesus. It is
striking that in the Scriptures some of the sharpest rebukes from Jesus to His
disciples were about this very thing, keeping the children from the Lord.
I thank God that He has revealed this
to us and we emphatically do not keep the little ones from Jesus. We bring them
to Him and He blesses them, for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
Dear saints, we are all little children
in God’s sight, babes in arms. It is imperative that we approach our Father
with that kind of humility, trusting Him as a little nursing daughter fully trusts
her doting mother.
We have a new saint among us, a sister,
Louisa Marie, saved by grace, blessed by Jesus and received as our fellow heir
of the kingdom. Let us rejoice in God’s goodness to us as His children and also
rejoice in our growing family.
