Dear Friend in the Lord,
Children – Innocence: When we gaze and ponder on an infant’s vulnerability, and total dependence on the parent’s and family’s care and love, we are reminded of the grave responsibilities that God has placed in our hands. The future development of our children not only in intelligence, health, but also holiness is in our hands.
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
Matthew 19:13-15
The people brought little children to Jesus, for him to lay his hands on them and pray. The disciples scolded them, but Jesus said, ‘Let the little children alone, and do not stop them from coming to me; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of Heaven belongs.’
Then he laid his hands on them and went on his way.
