Enduring Word Bible-Let the Children Come

Enduring Word Bible- #29

Mark 10:13-16
Let the Little Children Come to Me

There are so many great things 
on each page of God's Word.
Each section has "billboard-style"
noteworthy words.
I have always loved this story
 in particular, because Jesus 
was always inviting presence and "withness"
 to all those in the marginalized spaces
 of the Jewish world.
Children would have been in that category.
We surely hear that a child-like faith
 is key to entry to the kingdom of God. 
Simple, honest faith is worth
 more than a stack of theological degrees.
We often get side-tracked 
with what is really important.
I pray that the disciples remembered 
this example of inclusion and made it
 their practice to extend welcome 
to all the little children that certainly
 must have surrounded Jesus wherever He went.
And a reminder to us-
just how much Jesus valued all little ones.

I like that the margin space
 is a bit longer and fits well 
on the Enduring Word Bible
 margin space.
Thanks to the Visual Church Year
