Let them come to Jesus

Luke 18

15 One day some parents brought their little children to Jesus so he could touch and bless them. But when the disciples saw this, they scolded the parents for bothering him.
16 Then Jesus called for the children and said to the disciples, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are like these children. 17 I tell you the truth, anyone who doesn’t receive the Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it.”

Lord, may I never become such an old fuddy-duddy that I forget about how Jesus loves the little children. May I love them in the same manner. Jesus makes it clear that a childlike faith is essential, and Jesus is never happy when people try to prevent other people from coming to Him. May I be a conduit to Jesus in everything I do each day of my life.
