Do you ever feel like you're not very important? Most of us do at times. But we shouldn't. One day some people brought their children to Jesus so they could touch Him and be blessed by Him. But Jesus' followers told these people to stop bothering Jesus by bringing their children to Him. They said He was too busy to use His time that way. How do you think Jesus felt about this when He found out?

Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me. Don't stop them, because the kingdom of heaven belongs to people who are like these children." (The Youth Bible) Jesus received the children, put His hands on them, and prayed for each one. No one had any more doubts about how important children are to God!
