Matthew 19:13-14
13 Then little children were brought to Jesus for him to place his hands on them and pray for them. But the disciples rebuked those who brought them.
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."
For some reason I remember this little girl more than all the others during my recent trip to Nicaragua. Maybe its the innocence in her eyes or maybe she just reminded me of my own little princess back at home. Children are such a reminder of the central message that Jesus preached....children! Whether it was literal children or the fact that we are to come to him with a childlike faith, he often uttered the word..."child." So, for today act childish....and you will see God smiling down on you too!

Adults can learn a lot for listening and watching children as well as listening to the children's message in church.
