Love like a Child

Matthew 19

Jesus Blesses Little Children
13 Then little children were brought to Him that He might put His hands on them and pray, but the disciples rebuked them. 14 But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.” 15 And He laid His hands on them and departed from there.

This tiny portion of Scripture carries a great amount of weight.  "For such is the kingdom of Heaven." What does that mean to you?  For me, Christ is saying we all need to love like a child.  A child's love is pure and unadulterated.  They don't leave the womb knowing hate, prejudice, and discrimination, it is taught. If we would love like a child, many of the world's troubles could disappear from existence. But, because so many don't know God,  hate, prejudice, and discrimination are perpetuated in all forms of media and even in the church.  It's time for us all to start loving the way Christ explains here. Without care or fear, love everyone equally for His name sake. Amen
