A babe in the house is a well-spring of pleasure, a messenger of peace and love, a resting place for innocence on earth, a link between angels and men." Martin Fraquhar Tupper
Matthew 18:2
For an answer Jesus called over a child, whom he stood in the middle of the room, and said, "I'm telling you, once and for all, that unless you return to square one and start over like children, you're not even going to get a look at the kingdom, let alone get in. Whoever becomes simple and elemental again, like this child, will rank high in God's kingdom. What's more, when you receive the childlike on my account, it's the same as receiving me.

Have wonderful week and may you see God's hand in your life each day.

Babies and children are always such a wonderful reminder of the love of God and the relationship we are to enjoy by the grace of God; the relationship we are to have with Him!..,

Lovely...there's nothing quite as special as a newborn baby :)
ReplyDeleteI am always amazed at how my two girls teach me so much...about life...what's really important and their perspective is so simple yet so profound.
