Mark 10:13–16
13 And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them. 14 But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. 15 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein. 16 And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.

The disciples didn’t understand how important children are to Jesus. Even though He was busy teaching the adults, He was happy to take time to love and bless the children. Jesus said “of such is the kingdom of God”. To be with Him in the kingdom of God, they (those who are not children) would have to have faith, unconditional love and trust.
Watch a small child.
See what is the difference between them and you. We need to become more like them in order to be able to be received into the kingdom of God.
My little grandbaby, has so much love.

Every once in a while she acts a little cheeky, but I can always tell that she has heard someone else say or do it first. Her first actions are always sweet and innocent. Her love is so pure. I need to be more like that!
I also feel so loved by Jesus! It makes me want to show my love for Him. What can I do? He said, “Come follow me”. I can do what He did, when He was here. Love everyone, be kind, and do right. “Come unto to me”. I can be like a child, so He would want me close to Him. “Let your light so shine”. I can be an example. I can live the kind of life that says,
I love God.
Hope your Sunday is the best!! Love, Joy
