Luke 18 Jesus loves the little ones

Children were a favorite of Jesus because they came with no agenda or strings attached. They were drawn to Him because in Him they saw the love of Christ to them. There is a favorite song children love to sing: “Jesus loves the little children, red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in His sight.” Yes, they are and that is why we need to protect them, love on them, guide them to the cross. He loves them. 

One of the joys we have in our church body is seeing those who have accepted the salvation message and are then baptized. The joy they radiate to our church body is beyond description. How blessed we are for those who teach them and prepare them for the kingdom’s work. Are you praying, assisting, and guiding these young ones so that they see the love of Jesus before them?
