Mark 10:15

For such is the Kingdom....

Sometimes while I'm driving
Trying to find my song
Looking for the answers
And where I do belong
Finally the children are
Bringin' me back home....

Oooh Oooh Oooooh
Is there anybody out there? Does anybody care? Are the people really there?
Oooh Oooh Oooooh
Is there anybody seeking? Does anybody see? Or are they deaf and dumb like me?

At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, "Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?"
He called a little child and had him stand among them. And he said: "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
"And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me. But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea."
-- Matthew 18:1-6

Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
-- Matthew 19:14

We met this beautiful little girl on our trip to the Mandian Waterfall in Yunnan. That's her house she's standing in. Yes, she lives there. And she's one of the happiest, friendliest, most beautiful little girls I've met in a long time. Oh, for the heart of a child.....
