Jesus and Children

Elysia & Gareth at the Door

As the kids are driving me nuts a while ago, this particular quote came in timely:

“Jesus chose to be around small children a number of times in his ministry, often over the objections of his disciples. Sometimes he seems to have done this in order to hold children up as examples of the childlike qualitites that enable God’s Realm. But maybe, sometimes, he just wanted to hold them.”
- Susan Ross  from Alive Now, July/August 1994 (via God Politics)

Kye Xin (otherwise known as Elysia) said … “Ah .. Kye Xin, I wanna see Kye Xin” when she saw this picture. All is well no crying now.

marcus - many of us want to have conscious “meaning” in what we do, and it’s easy to forget the value in the simple act of doing it.
