[:en]Scripture Reading: Matthew 18:1-14
Biblical Truth: “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of God?” In his reply, Jesus said: “Unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Therefore, he who humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven” (vs. 1-4). Jesus used children as a visual aid to show their characteristics. They are innocent, weak and the nobodies.
Personal Application: Jesus wants us to humble ourselves like children and become the unimportant ones. We are not to be proud nor conceited but to realize that we are weak and need the love and care of God.
Prayer: Dear Jesus, help us to humble ourselves and recognize our need for you.[:]
