Reflection

"We witness a miracle every time a child enters into life. But those who make their journey home across time and miles, growing within the hearts of those who wait to love them, are carried on the wings of destiny and placed among us by God's very own hands."

-Kristi Larson

Many things we need can wait
The child cannot
Now is the time his bones are being formed
His blood is being made
His mind is being developed
To him we cannot say tomorrow
His name is today.
~ Gabriella Mistral

Taking a child
He placed it in their midst,
and putting His arms around it
He said to them,

“Whoever receives one child
such as this in My name,
receives Me;

and whoever receives Me,
receives not Me
but the One who sent Me."

Mark 9:36-37
