In our backyard, the Santa Rosa plum tree is blossoming. This new life points to a joyful hope of spring. When children are given the opportunity to trust in Jesus, their childlike faith amazes the most hardened skeptic. From their fresh perspective, we see hope of springtime and refreshment in our world. Kept away from the Savior, these same young lives will only mirror the hopelessness of a culture that is self- absorbed. – Teresa #cyberbullies vs. #unhinderedtrust #theirsisthekingdomofGod

Mark 10: 13-16 (ESV)

13 And they were bringing children to him that he might touch them, and the disciples rebuked them. 14 But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, “Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. 15 Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.” 16 And he took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them.
