# “Let the Little Children Come”

Luke 18:15–17

Parents brought their children and tiny babies to Jesus. They only wanted him to touch them. But then the disciples noticed what these parents were doing. They sternly ordered them to stop.

But Jesus called for them. “Let the little children come to me. Don’t stop them. The kingdom of God belongs to people like these children.

“I’ll tell you the truth: You must receive the kingdom like a child. If not, you will never enter into it.” Then he held the babies and gently touched the children.

Questions: Who does God’s kingdom belong to? Who do you need to be like to enter the kingdom?
