Highlighting the value of children......hopefully this will be a blessing and encouragement to you today, dear Parent (or Grandparent). The Bible is full of expressions of God's care and concern for the young and vulnerable. Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these."
Unfortunately, this perspective is becoming increasingly foreign to our modern world, where children are often seen as a burden and a drain. What could possibly be more rewarding than raising an impressionable young child in the love of the Lord? Is there anything more important than being able to answer questions such as "Why is the sky blue?" or "Who is God?" for the little ones entrusted in our care. It brings us comfort and joy as parents or grandparents to enjoy limitness opportunities with them! It produces loving relationships and a grateful heart for seeing them learn that fulfillment is found - in selfless service and a grateful heart! Yes, they are a high pursuit! Never take them for granted.
