Children are important to God. In His eyes, they are an example of what His kingdom is like. Children are very trusting of adults and we ought to trust God with the heart of a child. They are also fun, curious, and engaging. All of these attributes make children a delight to be around, and Jesus was more than happy to embrace them and bless them. His disciples were rebuking them. They obviously imagined that Jesus was too busy for little ones, They were wrong. Jesus Himself refers to us as His little children. Our Heavenly Father loves and cares for us. Let us serve Him with childlike faith.
