Dear [NAME],
Matthew 19:13-15 Let the Children Come to Me 13(A) Then children were brought to him that he might lay his hands on them and pray. The disciples(B)14 rebuked the people, but Jesus said, (C) "Let the little children(D) come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven." 15And he laid his hands on them and went away.
Matthew 19:13-15
To be like childrenby Allan Tigue I have an only daughter and her name is Vanessa Nicole. I find her so adorable and I can’t resist her smiles and pleadings. I can also say that she is so trusting to me. I think I can put her on a high place and say to her, “Jump and I will catch you.” And she will jump without hesitation. This is because children have strong faith in those around them. I guess we should all be careful with what we teach our children.

For others, it might be that to let them experience an environment around those who love them and love Jesus. For others, it might be to plant the seed of the Good News, that later will be ripe unto harvest. For still others, it might be to touch their heart to trust Jesus as their Saviour.
