Let The Children Come To Me (#23)

Bible version used: NIV

When Jesus was teaching many people about God and healing those who were sick, children were brought to Him so He would touch them and pray for them.

But Jesus’ disciples turned them away, telling them not to bother Jesus.

When Jesus saw this He was angry with his disciples and said: “Let the children come to me and do not send them away, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I tell you the truth, anyone who does not come to the Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it.” Mark 10:14, 15

And then Jesus took the children in his arms, put his hands on them and blessed them.

GOOD NEWS! This same Jesus is alive today and wants you to come to Him. Since He is God, He is with you right now. So you can talk to Him. He wants to be your friend. You can find out more about Jesus by reading the Bible and going to Sunday school and church. Talk to someone who loves Jesus. Jesus wants you to know that He died so that you can go to heaven. You can trust Jesus.
